Suma Brown, from Bourne Terrace, in Maida Hill, was charged with affray after a fight broke out at the open air swimming centre as families looked on.
A 16-year-old boy was stabbed in the abdomen and a 19-year-old boy was knifed in the buttocks. Neither injury was life-threatening.
On Thursday (July 26) magistrates declined jurisdiction of Brown’s case and released him on bail until September 6 when he is expected to be sent to the crown court for trial.
