# Juniores, 2026/27

Born in 2009 and 2010

Girl or boy? So we can show the right qualifying times.

Is this their first season of meets?

## What this year is like

Juniores lasts two seasons. Most swimmers now talk to the coach themselves, and parents mostly help with lifts, food and sleep.

## National meets

- 10–13 December [Campeonato Nacional de Juniores e Seniores — Piscina curta](https://swimtrack.ai/meets/fpn%3A2026-2027%3Anacionais-jun-sen-pc/) Tomar
- 8–11 April [Campeonatos Nacionais de Juniores e Seniores — Open](https://swimtrack.ai/meets/fpn%3A2026-2027%3Aopen-portugal/) Coimbra
- 29 July – 1 August [Campeonato Nacional de Juvenis, Juniores e Seniores](https://swimtrack.ai/meets/fpn%3A2026-2027%3Anacionais-verao/) Coimbra

This list has national meets only. Your coach will tell you about regional and club meets.
