Synchronised Swimming - Olympic Synchronized Swimming

Synchronised Swimming has been contested at the Summer Olympics since the 1984 Games. Although first demonstrated at the 1952 Olympic Games, synchronized swimming did not become an official Olympic sport until the 1984 Summer Olympic Games. Synchronized Swimming became officially recognized by FINA in 1968; as the fourth water sport next to swimming, platform diving and water polo.


The current Olympic program has competition in duet and team events, but in past games, a solo event was also contested. From 1984 through 1992, the Summer Olympic Games featured solo and duet competitions, but they both were dropped in 1996 in favor of team competition. At the 2000 Olympic Games, however, the duet competition was restored and is now featured alongside the team competition.

The United States, Canada and Japan have traditionally been the strongest nations in the sport, winning every Olympic medal from 1984 through 1996. Russia has recently dominated, winning every event in 2000, 2004 and 2008.
