Triton Aquatics Intro to Water Polo program is one of our most popular programs throughout the year. This structured 6-week program is crafted to expedite the development of fundamental skills in water polo for our young entry-level athletes. 

Recognizing the importance of quality training and individual attention, each program session is capped at 15 athletes. This limit ensures that each participant receives the focused guidance and support needed to truly excel, maintaining the integrity and effectiveness of the Triton Development Program.

Offered in two sessions each season, the program introduces athletes to the essential elements of water polo, including game strategy, individual and team skills such as passing and shooting, and the physical training and conditioning necessary to play at the competitive level. Select athletes will be invited to try out for our entry-level competition teams at the conclusion of each session program.

Athletes will participate in 24 hours of training throughout each session. Following the program's conclusion, athletes will be invited to join the 12U or 14U team.

Swim Team Add-On - We recommend all campers join the Novice/Age Group Swim Team on Tuesdays & Thursdays. During the enrollment process, you will be given the ability to join these programs at a prorated price while enrolled in the Intro to Water Polo program.

Participants will be required to be able to demonstrate swimming proficiency at the start of each session.
