Training
New players are always welcome, all we ask is that you can swim at least a couple of lengths
Your first training session is free, and we will introduce you to our members and show you around.
Our training sessions focus on fitness, water polo skills, technique, and above all fun. All training is coached.
The main session lasts 90 minutes. We start with a swim warm-up, then on to water polo skills. Most sessions end in match practice.
If you're a new starter or a little unfit, you're still more than welcome to come down. The swim warm-up is divided by ability, so, whether it's your first time or you've played before, we can cater for you. Remember that you can always take a breather.
Just bring yourself, your swimwear, and a towel.
