Some Summer 2010 Info
The calendar has been updated for a while now with our start date, major tournaments, our break, so be sure to click above. Although not on the calendar yet, we plan on scheduling more local tournaments on most weekends so everyone will be competing often.
We are finalizing our summer schedule and will get it posted as soon as we can.
Summer Kickoff Meeting – Mon, May 10th, 7 pm at Stanford. Mandatory for all players and parents
Workouts begin Monday, May 17th.
As you can see (and we posted months ago), Junior Olympics is a week later than in the past. This leaves less time for family vacations after JOs and before the high school season.  To help with this we are having NO workouts or games from Mon, June 28 to Sun, July 4. As of now the only tournament we are entering on June 26-27 is qualifying for 20/U and Senior Nationals. This would be for college players and our elite 18s and possibly some 16s. Everyone else will not have anything on Sat, June 26 or Sun, June 27th.
Be sure to check back often for more info.
Recap from the Olympians
For those that attended, what a great evening. Lots of insightful words and encouragement from the best our sport has to offer.
Thanks to Ellen, Margie, Alison and Jessica for coming and speaking with our club players.
 
 
Meet our Stanford Olympians
We have moved our chat with the Stanford Olympians up to 5:30 pm, in Kissick Auditorium (next to the pool). We hope to see you here on Saturday night, March 20th.
The athletes will speak about their experiences as a water polo player, growing up, at Stanford and as an Olympian, followed by a Q & A session. Come ready to ask some questions and bring your camera.
