HOUSE LEAGUE (Age 8-12)
The House League is an opportunity for players of all abilities to get in the water, have fun and compete against their peers. Children will be introduced to the basic skills of water polo in a fun and encouraging environment. Players will be divided evenly onto teams that they will play/train with for the entire season. All players will get equal playing time. Practice will be 1 day during the week and Sunday afternoons will be dedicated to competing against the other in-house league teams. Exact practice schedules will be determined once players have been evaluated. Minimum swimming level needed to participate.
Practices Per Weeks: 2 (1 practice and 1 game day)
Length of Practice: 1 hour
Season Offered: Fall, Winter, Spring
Attendance Requirements: None (50-100% recommended for optimum progress)
MARCH 3 - APRIL 27: SPRING WATER POLO HOUSE LEAGUE
The Spring 2025 Greenwich Aquatics Water Polo House league season starts up the week of March 3. Players will practice one time during the week and then play in-house games every Sunday. We have listed the practice days for all groups. For Sunday game days, kids will be divided onto different teams every week so they get to learn how to play with everyone. Players will play from either 1-2pm or 2-3pm.
Cost Per Season: $475 (plus a YMCA annual membership which is $280 for the year) Register Here
Prerequisite: In order to play water polo, players need a minimum swimming level. Players need to be able to swim a few laps of freestyle without stopping. We do a timed 50 free at the evaluations and are looking for players to do 2 laps around 1 minute or under. If players are not ready for water polo based on their swimming level, we recommend focusing on swim lessons to start.
