Can I try it out?

• You will come to a session and we will assess your ability before placing you with a group. You’ll work on your swimming and be playing with the ball before long.

• The taster session is free. If you’d like to come back we’ll ask you to fill out a registration form and speak to you about fees.

Why water polo?

• It’s a great work out that improves strength, fitness and flexibility.
