Event

Under consideration of the regulations for the 18th FINA Diving Grand Prix the nomination of the participants is exclusively carried out by the national federations.
The national federations may either send a national team or a representative team of one of their clubs. They are not allowed to send both.
In addition, sportsmen belonging to foreign federations traditionally invited and those nominated by the German Swimming Federation (DSV) are eligible.
The maximum number of divers who can participate in an individual DGP event is four from the Host Federation and two from each visiting Federation. In synchronised diving the maximum number of teams who can achieve DGP points is one per Federation.
The Host Federation may enter four divers in the prelims of an individual event but only two can advance to the semi-finals.
The Host Federation may enter two teams in the direct final of a synchro event but only the best team can achieve DGP points. No additional divers or teams are allowed to start in a DGP meeting, which means that participation in the form of exhibition is not allowed.

The competitions will be conducted in accordance to the FINA rules and regulations.
