The Intermediate School Water Polo Competition has finished for 2026
WATER POLO Looking forward to starting again next year term 2 & 3.
No water polo term 4. Only swim for polo Tuesday & Thursday mornings 6 - 7am and
Primary to Polo Term 4 - Thursday and Friday afternoons.
Primary to Polo programme is back for Term 4, and despite the name, I want to reassure everyone that this programme is absolutely suitable for Intermediate-aged players as well!
It’s a great option for Year 7 & 8 players who have enjoyed playing water polo this year and want to continue their water polo journey, develop their skills and become more confident in the deep pool heading into next season.
The programme is also suitable for players who may still be relatively new to water polo and would benefit from some extra time working on their swimming, water confidence, ball skills and the fundamentals of the game in a fun and supportive environment.
