Otter Polo Programs

K - 3rd Pups

For water lovers who may need a life jacket or are beginner swimmers. Athletes will build passing, shooting and teamwork skills through fun drills and games.

We are excited to announce a new partnership with Wes Deist Aquatic Center! Check their website to register your young athlete.

3rd - 6th Otters

For young swimmers ready to learn water polo no matter their swimming ability. Athletes will build confidence in the water and learn the rules of water polo through beginner challenges and games.

We are excited to announce a new partnership with Wes Deist Aquatic Center! Check their website to register your young athlete.

Our program holds athletes to a high standard of excellence. This includes showing respect for coaches and teammates by listening, staying engaged, and demonstrating good sportsmanship.

This is an organized, coached environment—not free swim time. Athletes are expected to be attentive during instruction. Repeated disruptions (such as going underwater or not listening) may result in additional conditioning or corrective activities.

Our goal is simple: create a fun, challenging, and positive environment where every athlete can grow and enjoy the sport.

FAQs:

What if my young athlete needs a life jacket?

Many of the Otters do! Please bring one from home or there are some available at the pool.

As a parent, do I need to stay while my child is participating?

This is up to you! There are chairs on deck for you to observe or you may leave.

What will they do each week?

Practice various kicks and strokes, passing & shooting, drills & games, and end every practice with a scrimmage.
