NORTHCROSS WATERPOLO 2020

This year we have been allocated three teams into the North Harbour Waterpolo/Millennium Competition.

TRIALS

NH Waterpolo will be conducting the trials for the NX teams this year. Trials will be held on the following dates and times: Friday 14th Feb, Friday 21st Feb and Friday 6th March - all at 3.30pm to 4.30pm - at Millennium.

To register for the Waterpolo trials please go to the NX Online Shop. There will be a one off, non-refundable cost of $15 to attend these trials.

**Please note: ALL TRIALISTS must be able to swim in a deep pool and confidently complete a 50m swim on both their front and back. Should the NH selectors feel a player is not strong enough schools will be notified. It is recommended that students attend all trials.

GAMES, VENUE & TRAINING

Once teams have been selected, they will commence training on Friday 13th March from 3.30 to 4.30pm at Millennium. This training time will continue for the rest of Term 1, with training's run by two of North Harbour Waterpolo Club Coaches. A round of Grading Games will take place before the end of term - the date and time will be confirmed closer to the time.

There will be trainings in Term 2, 3 and 4 - the day and time of this training is still yet to be confirmed (in 2019 however it was on a Monday afternoon). Competition games in Terms 2, 3 and 4 will take place on a Friday afternoon/evening between 3.45pm - 9pm.

FEES: $105 (Term 1 - only if selected for the team); $120 (Terms 2,3 & 4 - $120 per term)

UNIFORM: If your child is successful in securing a spot in the Waterpolo team, it is necessary that they wear the NX Waterpolo togs. These will be available to order and pay for from our Resource Room. The cost for Girls togs is $115 and the Boys is $60. These are high quality togs specifically designed for Waterpolo.
