The purpose of the Summer Water Polo program is to teach water polo skills to children entering fifth through ninth grade. Although the program is geared to middle school students, first time high school age players welcome. The program is suitable for both new players, and those who have played in another middle school program in the past. There are high school seniors who are also there to help run the practices and get to know the players. This program will teach water polo skills and basic game strategy.
