All federations are invited to send proposed changes the year before the Congress - the next congress will be in 2010. Proposals will be submitted in 2009.
As part of an international governing body, we make our proposals, unfortunatly we do not always get what we propose. As a side note, the differnent disciplines have different age group limits. Synchro is 20 on 31 December, Divinig is 25, Water Polo is 30.
