Description:
We are a group of students who love the sport of water polo. We want to continue to learn and improve at the sport of water polo in a fun and safe environment. With enough interest, we would love to compete against other university club teams. If you have any interest at all in water polo, come join us and have fun! (P.S. minimal swim experience is needed. We can help you learn how to swim if that’s what’s swaying you away!)
