Benefits of Water Polo

Water sports have a proven track record for developing your child’s inner wellbeing, cardiovascular, and many other aspects of physical and mental health.

Increased Endurance

Your body will become progressively stronger when you practice water polo.

Injury Prevention

Water acts as a cushion for the body. Even when a player gets knocked around or dives hard for the ball, there is no hard surface to fall against, and the water prevents strain on the joints.

Cardio

All of this movement gets your heart pumping! To ensure proper heart health, one must partake in cardio workouts for at least 30 minutes each day. Water polo is an excellent way to do cardio training because of the constant exercise you partake in.

Cooling Effect

Exercising in the water is a great choice because it keeps your body from getting overheated, which leads to feelings of exhaustion.

Full-Body Workout

No part of your body sits still during a water polo game. Muscle groups throughout your entire body are engaged, and with repeated activity they gain increased strength.

Team Sport

You are way more likely to come to practice when all your friends are there waiting on you. Team sports build accountability and make your exercise patterns much more regular.

1200+ Successful Players

"To give so much of yourselves daily to anything you must love what you do because every worthwhile endeavor in the future will require the same level of dedication and attention to detail. Trade what you want now for what you want the most."
