Come Learn from the Best!
Experience European-style water polo training, featuring many of the cutting-edge techniques currently taught across Europe—from professional clubs to youth programs—as well as top programs in the U.S. Our comprehensive curriculum covers everything from basic fundamentals to advanced tactics and game strategy.
Daily Training Structure:
-
Morning Sessions: Players train in small groups, focusing on all positions—offense and defense. Key areas of development include water polo-specific swimming, passing, shooting, counterattacks, and game scenarios.
-
Evening Sessions: Players apply the day's lessons in scrimmages, focusing on real-game situations to reinforce strategic understanding and execution.
Goalie-Specific Training:
Goalkeepers receive dedicated instruction throughout the entire camp. The first hour of each practice is set aside exclusively for goalie development, emphasizing technique, positioning, and response to various in-game situations. Once integrated into team sessions, goalies continue refining their skills in live game play.
Expert Staff:
Our coaching staff includes NCAA All-Americans, Division I athletes, and members of the USC coaching staff—offering elite guidance and mentorship to all participants.
