Spring Water Polo

What is next?

High schoolers should be swimming with their high school/club teams.  Fulfilling their commitment to their school and teammates is important.  And of course swimming is the foundation to water polo.  The competitive nature of the sport, racing everyday in workouts and at meets, not to mention getting into great shape is great for both swimming and water polo.

Age Group will start Wed,  Feb 22, and conclude Apr 22.   Water polo workouts will continue to be Mon & Wed and  be from 6:15-8:15 pm at Stanford.  We will have additional swimming workouts on Thur at SHP  for those who need or want to train on those days who do not have a swim team they are currently on.  We do some swimming in the spring to mirror the high school season and getting in shape for the summer.  Registration will be posted soon.

Jr Polo (5th grader/under) will have 2 spring sessions.  Spring 1 goes from Feb 27-Apr 21, (taking April 4-10 off for spring break- different schools have different breaks), and Spring 2 from Apr 30-May 12.  Registration will be posted shortly as well.  Kids can sign up for either or both.  Spring 2 will be posted at a later date.
