More than 100 children took part in the championship, from both Tbilisi and Rustavi swimming pools. There were 78 prize winners and the judges were members of the republic category of referee board.
The boys winners were Giorgi Gogoladze, who took first place in the category of butterfly, and Nika Jijiashvili, who came second place in the same category.
In the category of girls, the first two places were taken by Keso Aghvliani and Elizabeth Bitsadze in glitter swimming.
As many swimmers had requested it, the decision was made to host the tournament for the second time and it will be
held in future at the end of each year with the aim of popularizing swimming as a sport, and to teach young adults the
importance of a healthy lifestyle. It also aims to find talented children and encourage and support them.
