The 2015 European Short Course Swimming Championships (25 m) took place in Netanya, Israel, from 2–6 December 2015.[1] They were originally scheduled to be held in January 2015, but the LEN moved the event to December.[2] The venue of the event was the brand new swimming complex of the Wingate Institute. This complex features an Olympic-size pool with 10 lanes and 3 meter depth, backed by the latest built-in filtration systems, an 8-lane 50 m pool and a 6-lane 25 m pool.
The swimmer of the meet honors went to Katinka Hosszú of Hungary and Gregorio Paltrinieri of Italy.[3] Hosszú won six gold medals and one silver, breaking two world records and six championship records, while Paltrinieri won one gold medal in a world record time.
