Rice graduate, Joey Franz, has participated as a clinician.  Franz, a former goalie for the University of the Pacific water polo team competes with the Alumni Water Polo team in California.  There will be six clinicians here this year.  Each as NCAA or National Team experience!

IWP College Recruiting 101 @ Naperville Central High School
Jan 28 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Illinois Water Polo will be holding a college water polo “recruiting 101” session on Monday, January 28th @ 7pm in the Naperville Central Learning Commons. All athletes, coaches, and parents are invited to attend. Our target audience is probably sophomores and juniors, but there’s still time for seniors who have still not made a firm decision about their next step.

 

This free seminar is designed to introduce members of the Illinois Water Polo community to the basics of the college process: registering with the NCAA, your high school coach’s role in the process, contacting college coaches, scholarship myths & realities, varsity vs. club, etc. This is strictly informative; this is not a recruiting service, there’s no sales pitch, and no cost.

 

Naperville Central High School

440 W. Aurora Ave

Naperville

 

Enter school at Door 1 on Aurora Ave, not the pool entrance. There will be signs inside the main entrance directing you to the Learning Commons.   

 

We’ll absolutely take drop-ins, but it would be helpful for planning purposes if some attendees would pre-register.
