Beginner Water Polo
Wednesdays 5:00-5:30
This is a perfect class for those who have finished level 4 swim lessons and are ready to try something new. In this class, we will introduce the fundamental skills for water polo. Skills will include but not be limited to body balance (horizontal and vertical), treading water, technical movements with and without the ball, passing and shooting. We will play keep away games to introduce the concept of offense and defense. Once they master the skills listed above, they will be ready for the intermediate class.
Intermediate Water Polo
Wednesdays -5:30-7:00 PM
In this class, we will continue to build a strong foundation of fundamental skills, including body balance (horizontal and vertical), treading water, technical movements with and without the ball, passing and shooting. We will also work on defensive and offensive movements with and without a ball. We will teach skills such as pressure passing and release moves and will build up to mini games to encourage movement with and out the ball as well as offensive and defense strategies. Participation in Sunday League is highly recommended.
