We encourage everyone to come and give water polo a go! Whether you have never played before, haven’t played since high school or have been playing for over 10 years. We accommodate all skill levels with our training sessions focused on developing the core building blocks of Water Polo including fitness, technique, and ball skills progressing to more advanced skills as you improve! Enjoyment is the most important thing at the Owls! Our swimming training is undertaken at Club Lime ANU Campus in Acton, and our Water Polo takes place at the Canberra International Sports and Aquatic Centre (CISAC) in Belconnen.
