All games this Sunday will be held at Palo Alto High School.  We are the host team which allows us to play close to home.  The teams and times are posted below.
The ‘A’ team please arrive by 7 am to help setup the course.
Everyone else arrive ready 45 min before your first game.

We will need help running the desk trhoughout the day, even when your daughter does not play.  Please assist Kelsey, Brenda & Jessica with this so they can warmup and coach the players.  A list of jobs and responsibilities is attached as well.  Even if you are new come over and help, it is educational and easy. 

The last team playing will be responsible to breaking down the course and cleanup.  It is fast if the entire group helps.  In addition everyone will be asked to make a trash sweep around the facility before they depart. 

We understand that the team gear is not here, do your best.  Be sure to place your order by Monday.  Swim caps should be available at the games. 

If your name does not appear below, contact your coach and come to the level appropriate game. 

Team & Game Times

Desk Duties & Description

Good luck and have fun.

Saturday, Sept 18th, is one of the special workouts dedicated to shooting.  The other one is scheduled for Sun, Sept 26th. 

The group assignments for Saturday are posted below.  This is held at Roble Gym Pool on the Stanford Campus (Santa Teresa St.), NOT at the Avery Aquatic Center. 

Athletes should arrive with their suit already on.  The first 10 min will be warmup on land so they are ready to miximize their short time in the water.  If the first group can arrive a little early to help with setup that would be appreciated. 

If you have any questions contact Kelsey.  Her email is her first name  @stanfordwaterpolo.com

Schedule
Rosters

Below are the rosters for qualifying for 20’s and Open Nationals. 
The qualifying tournament will be held Fri-Sun, June 25-27.  The location will change every day but we do know Saturday games will be at Stanford.  Fri and Sun most likely will be in Marin and/or East Bay. 

There are 5 teams trying to qualify in each of the tournaments so the format is a round robin for each tournament (4 games in each the 20/u & Nationals quals – if you are on both rosters you get to play 8 games).   Our zone is allocated one spot but we will get more spaces and the final number will be announced soon. 

The A team for both tournaments is pre-qualified because the top 4 teams from last year receive automatic bids and we won both championships last year.  Therefore just the B team will compete in quals.  However, Saturday we will need players on the A team to help run the desk at Stanford, and be there to cheer on your teammates.

Athletes are continually being evaluated and no matter how many teams we qualify there may be changes to the rosters.  Final rosters will be announced by July 9th. 

As a reminder, the actual National Championships are: 20/u July 27-29 & Nationals July 30-Aug 1
