Why Splashball?

Splashball is the perfect introduction to water polo and water sports for younger children. Here’s why:

  • Water Confidence: Splashball helps kids develop confidence in the water by learning basic swimming skills and techniques that are critical for water safety.
  • Non-Contact & Safe: Unlike traditional water polo, Splashball is non-contact, allowing kids to focus on having fun and learning the game without the physicality of competition.
  • Active & Healthy Lifestyle: Water polo promotes cardiovascular health, endurance, and physical fitness. Through Splashball, kids can start developing healthy habits early in life.
  • Teamwork & Social Skills: Children learn how to work as part of a team, communicate effectively, and build lasting friendships while playing fun and interactive water games.
  • Experienced Coaching: Our experienced coaches are passionate about working with kids and prioritize safety, skill development, and fun in every session.

To make the most of each practice, please ensure your child brings:

  • Swimsuit
  • Swim cap (optional)
  • Goggles
  • Towel
  • Water bottle

We provide all necessary water polo equipment, so your child just needs to come ready to have fun!
