Do I need to be able to swim?

If you are aged 11 and over, you must be able to swim at least 50m (2 lengths) in two different strokes.
If you are aged under 11 you don’t have to be able to swim but you should also be taking swimming lessons. We have sessions that are split between swim improvement and learning to play water polo. These take place in the Falls Leisure Centre on a Thursday evening (see training page for more info).
If you are a senior player you must be an experienced and confident swimmer.

We offer free taster sessions to anyone who is interested. Click here to request a taster session.
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.

If you want to commit to training and playing for the club, fill out a registration form.
We have a document setting out fees. If you’d like to know more, contact us or get in touch with a coach.

A swim suit (remember shorts slow you down and make it difficult to kick effectively).
Goggles.
A swim hat if you have long hair (we can provide one, if necessary).

It’s a great work out that improves strength, fitness and flexibility.
It strengthens the mind too as you need to appreciate tactics and commit to training.
It develops team work and leadership skills.
It’s for people of all abilities.

If you or your child is interested in playing water polo and want to try a session for free, fill in the form and we’ll get back to you asap.
