Summer is officially over and, although the water polo league season has just begun, there is plenty of news to catch up on!
The EU Nations Club Water Polo tournament took place between 21st and 23rd September in Prague, Czech Republic.
The women’s final was an all-English event with City of Coventry taking on City of Liverpool! This is an amazing achievement which demonstrates that English women continue to fight for their place on the international water polo stage.
The weather has been amazing and outdoor water polo in England has been on show this summer. Lyme Regis has been a home to water polo since 1906. In 2017 Lyme Splash launched its first championship as part of Lyme Regis Carnival Week. The event was such a success that it was decided to run it again on 5th August 2018.
