In detail, the announcement:
“The Nautical Club of Chania announces the addition of Japanese regional player Kako Kawaguchi for the women’s water polo team.
Kawaguchi competed in the recently held Asian Games
as in the city of Hangzhou, China, so he is coming in full form to join our team coach, Giorgos Katsoulakis.
Kawaguchi, who is 24 years old (14/7/1999), competed in the 2021 Olympics held in her hometown of Tokyo, and has also competed in three world championships, two of which took place in 2019 and one in 2015.
