WATER POLO CAMPS

WATER POLO LESSONS

Our water polo classes are designed to teach the sport to inexperienced and experienced players.  Depending on their ability, we’ll teach basic to more advanced skills and understanding in a recreational format that will be fun and safe. Students will learn how to effectively swim using the head-up freestyle method, swimming with the ball, and treading water with and without hands.  Then we will move into learning how to handle, pass and shoot. Once they have learned and practiced these fundamental skills, they will move on to learning basic game set-up, plays, offensive and defensive skills.  Students must have learned how to swim, are comfortable in the water and are looking to participate in a fun and competitive environment.
