Ages 5.5-14 years old are welcome. All swimmers must be able to swim one length of the lap pool and be able to float on their back, an assessment may be needed.

Winter Water Polo
La Madrona Water Polo is here for the Winter. This fun class will introduce our swimmers to the sport of Water Polo. Swimmers will have a chance to learn the different aspects of the game building upon their existing swimming skills and introducing the basic team skills while having fun. It is a great opportunity to build self-confidence, teamwork, responsibility, and perseverance in the fun and safe lap pool. Coach Andrew will be looking forward to seeing you on Fridays.
Our Early Winter Water Polo had to be cancelled due low enrollment. But let's try for the 2nd half of Winter and see if we can get something going! We will need a minimum of 9. Spaces are still available. To register please contact the Aquatics Director.

Private Lessons
