Sedgefield Water Polo Club would like to congratulate eight of our athletes who were selected to attend the England Water Polo Talent Games held at the Alan Higgs Centre, Coventry over the weekend of 27th and 28th April. Harry, Dylan, Kara and Indie represented the North East U14’s, Aston represented the North West U16’s and Kyle, Thomas and Gregor represented the North East U16’s. This is an excellent opportunity for a small club to have a good representation at national level.
This event allowed our athletes to compete against those from other talent centres in a round robin format tournament – gaining valuable high level competitive game play with some of the best athletes in the country – whilst also undertaking workshops on nutrition and balancing school work with sporting commitments. Parents were also led through a safeguarding workshop.
We’d also like to advise that we can now offer player sponsorships for just £30 per player for this season, in return for regular advertising and promotion on our social media pages. If this is something that your business may be interested in, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. All monies raised will be used to allow our fantastic members the opportunity to develop their skills and provide them with the equipment they need in order to succeed in the sport.
In addition to Junior and Senior sessions, Sedgefield Water Polo Club now offers a beginner session at Newton Aycliffe Leisure Centre on a Saturday afternoon for those wishing to try this fun and exciting sport. All sessions need to be booked in advance on our Club App, so please check our website for further information and joining instructions, email sedgefieldwp@hotmail.com or contact 07579 030598.
