Welcome to Illawarra Water Polo

 

Our aim is to give competent swimmers aged 7+ the opportunity to safely learn and play the sport of water polo, right here in the Illawarra. We cater from beginners to experts and focus on the development of all our players through training and games.

We offer:

  • a Summer junior program for ages 7 to 17 years (up to born 2008)
  • year-round senior programs for ages 16+

 


 

Senior Spring season is underway

Junior Summer season starts Monday 13th October
