Please contact One of our Coaches to become a member of the Hillsboro Water Polo Club.
Water Polo is a high intensity team sport where each team tries to shoot a ball past a goalie and into the opponents goal. The basic rules include using only one hand to handle the ball and staying off the bottom of the pool. The ball is passed from player to player and players can also swim with the ball (dribbling).
The sport requires swimming, conditioning, ball handling, teamwork, and endurance. There are no prerequisites to join the team other than having an up to date sports physical and insurance paper work turned in to the Hillsboro High School athletics office. It is highly recommended that you should be able to swim 100 yards without stopping.
