SJA Fall 2017 Season
Registration Now Open!
SJA Water Polo is excited to announce our Fall 2017 Season! Fall is popular for younger players to learn the sport and gain great experience with our coaches.
We were thrilled with our Summer season, which just completed with a record SEVEN teams (18U Girls, 16U Girls, 14U Girls, 10U CoEd, 16U Boys, 14U Boys and 12U Boys qualifying and competing strongly at the Junior Olympics! You can read more HERE! We saw record registrations across our groups, and were thrilled to see beginners across age groups come in, learn fundamentals, improve and have fun!
Fall season will have 14U, 12U and 10U age groups while our high school boys and girls compete in the High School league season. This is a great opportunity for kids coming off summer club cabana swimming seasons to explore water polo and develop with our outstanding coaching staff. We will have two practices a week (Wednesday after school and Saturday afternoon) and opportunities to play in 2-3 tournaments that will be selected based on age and team skill level.
Registration is now open! Please click on “how to register” to complete your registration. Space fills up quickly! Please sign up by September 9th!
Our practices will be 90 minutes on either Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday afternoons, and Saturday afternoons for two hours. Please refer to our tentative schedule below. All practices will be at Leland High School. We will be announcing our scrimmages/games in the next two weeks. Anticipate 1-2 in October and one in early November. These will be played on Sundays, with rare exception.
If you have any questions, please send us an email via our contact form. See you on the pool deck this Fall!

Hi,
My daughter has been swimming on a team for 3 years and is a really strong swimmer…would like to join water polo, but has zero experience. Can she still join your club? Also, what age group should I reg her for…she turned 12 in July. Thanks in advance.

Hi. Thanks for your interest! We’d love to have your daughter join the club. If you haven’t already registered, she’d be in the 12U group. The cut off is the child’s age as of August 31 that calendar year. Since she’s 12 in July, she’d be eligible for 12U teams. I hope that helps! Thank you.

I have an 11 year old boy who is interested in joining a water polo team. He would be a beginner, since he has never played before. Wondering if you could provide some information on the program and when the next season’s registration would be available? Thanks!
