On Sunday, September 15, Fenwick High School will be the host site for a college water polo recruiting talk at 5:30pm in the Fenwick library.
Dan Sharadin, former Villanova water polo coach and current commissioner of the Collegiate Water Polo Association which oversees most of the water polo players on the east coast at the NCAA level and almost all of the water polo in the United States played at the collegiate club level, will be presenting. This is a great opportunity for anyone thinking they might be interested in playing college water polo at any level in the future.
The maximum number of attendees will be capped at 70. RSVP to [email protected] by 9/13/2019 or call 610-277-6787
October 4-6 at various local sites in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago. Schedules will be made available one week
prior to the event. This is a tournament hosted by ODP Coaches to observe/evaluate/recruit ideal athletes for the
ODP program. There will be divisions for 14u Co-Ed, High School Boys, and High School Girls. National Team
Coaches will be in attendance and available to players for feedback and information. Clubs can register their own
team. Athletes who are not able to play with a club can enter as “Free Agents” and play on a team coached by one of
the ODP Zone Coaches. See usawaterpolo.org for registration

For athletes that have registered for the St. Louis camp but would rather attend the Chicago camp, USA Water Polo needs you to take the following steps in order to complete this registration as they can not transfer funds from one event to another:
1) Email Anne Laurence at [email protected] and let her know you wish to change camps.
2) Be sure to include the athlete’s name and USA Water Polo member number in your email.
3) A refund will be issued for the St. Louis camp and then the athlete will need to register for the Chicago camp.
