Szakadati resigns from LEN. Hungarian Swimming Association sings with Arena until 2016. RSA finds money for 2013 Worlds

LEN Executive Director Laszlo Szakadati has resigned. He was in charge since 1999 as Office Manager and Executive Director since May of 2012

Italy's waterwear brand  Arena today said the company had signed a new contract with Hungarian Swimming Association until 2016.
Arena is also extending their individual sponsorships of László Cseh and Daniel Gyurta, while also signing up Éva Risztov, Zsuzsanna Jakabos and Katinka Hosszú as newcomers to the prestigious Elite Team

RSA finds money for 2013 Worlds. Just a day after Bert Le Clos described as "pathetic" South Africa's inability to pay for its swimmers to race at world titles this summer, the cash has been found.
The SA Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee has confirmed that South Africa's elite swimmers will participate in the World Aquatics Championships in Barcelona in July - and the best will be paid for. That includes Chad Le Clos and Cameron Van Der Burgh, Olympic champions in the 200m butterfly and 100m breaststroke respectively at London 2012.
Swimming SA told its home media that "lesser known athletes" might need to contribute some of the costs if they hope to take part.
