German swimmers who were nominated for Rio (Koch will decide whether he will compete after the meeting in Rome this weekend):

Marco Koch (200 breast)

Christian vom Lehn (100 breast, medley relay)

Marius Kusch (100 fly, medley relay)

Marek Ulrich (100 back, medley relay)

Damian Wierling (50 free, medley relay + maybe 100 free)

Poul Zellmann (400 free)

Florian Wellbrock (1500 free)

Jacob Heidtmann (400 IM)

Franziska Hentke (200 fly)

Aliena Schmidtke (100 fly)

Lisa Graf (200 back)

Celine Rieder (800 free)

 

I really like the fact that Schmidtke got rewarded for her recent improvements, but i dont get why Sarah Köhler and Christian Diener, who both reached the final in Rio, werent nominated. Koch, Heidtmann and Schmidtke got nominated despite missing the qualification standards. All of them, expect for Ulrich, Zellmann, Rieder and Schmidtke should be able to reach the final. Heintz should definitely win a medal, Hentke as well, if she finally manages to perform at her best at a global championships. Graf and Koch might have an outside chance for a medal.

 

Germany will send a pretty big team to the junior world championships, but no team will be send to the junior european championships.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Seke is our main hope here. She was great this year. We also have one Djokovic and one Novak in team :p So, they will be good in future :p This is as well our team for EYOF.
