Support the 20th Year Reunion & Celebration!

We will have an amazing gathering of Stanford club alums on Friday and Saturday. They are excited to see each other, and very eager to meet our current club players.

If you would like to support the reunion with a donation, you can do so on the Eventbrite page. Any amount will help us make this a fantastic event for our club and our honored alums!

** Current players and families should not use the RSVP link – it is for the club alums only.

Thank you in advance for your support of this event 20 years in the making!

Fantastic alumni reports – Junior Polo can participate!

There are now 26 alumni reports on the 20th Year Celebration & Reunion page – big thanks to all the alums and current players who have participated in this amazing project. Can’t wait to receive more!

These interviews are great for all players and parents to read. The alums are having a great time reading them as well. Everyone is excited for next weekend’s reunion!

We still have many young alums who we would like to assign to club girls. Junior Polo athletes are encouraged to participate! Email Kyle at kyle@stanfordwaterpolo.com to get involved.

 

Alumni interviews are rolling in!

Another batch of alumni interviews has been published. Keep them coming! Click the 20th Year Celebration and Reunion link above to find them.

Players who have not received an alum assignment need to contact Kyle right away. We have more alums to connect current players with! Help honor them by participating in this historic project.

Alumni Report #1: Kendall Preston

Izzy Mandema connected with Kendall Preston. Kendall played and coached for Stanford.

Send info from your alumni interviews to kyle@stanfordwaterpolo.com and start working on your “poster” – a good size for these would be half a poster board, or 11×17 paper. You can deliver the posters to your coach at practice.

What team was your rival when you played for Stanford club?

What’s your favorite memory of the club?
All of our travel trips like our bus trips (not sure if you all still do those) and our Canada trips were probably some of my best memories. JO’s is a blast too, but the other ones we were able to take part in were truly awesome.
