Holiday Practices at H2O
Holiday practices are a fun, informal way to stay active over the break and a great chance to try water polo or meet our senior youth and adult teams.
Who are these sessions for?
- Senior A athletes
- Senior B athletes
- Adult Rec and Adult Competitive players
- 14U athletes who have trained with the 16U team (by coach approval)
These sessions are more relaxed than regular practices and will be led by the adult and senior athletes who attend. Please check in with your coach and ensure parent/guardian permission before participating.
