NYP WPC is hosting Round 3 of the Community Water Polo Invitational Friendly Series

The Community Water Polo Invitational Friendly Series is a fun and inclusive autumn competition that brings together junior players from six local clubs: Northcote, Essendon, NYP, DVE, Footscray, and Monash at 4 locations.

This is a great event to showcase water polo and invite along family and friends to see the action.

 About the Event:

• Mixed teams will be created from players across all clubs, based on coaching assessments that consider experience, age, and ability.
• Players from the same club and grade will be grouped together where possible.
• The goal is to ensure every player gets game time, is challenged appropriately, and learns from the experience.
