Water Polo Championships 2022: Photos & Results
The Olympic water polo goals of secondary students from Sydney Catholic schools have taken another leap forward.
A real squad effort saw six teams of Year 7-12 students from the Archdiocese of Sydney come away with wins at Sydney Catholic Schools’ (SCS) first Water Polo Championships at Ashfield Aquatic Centre.
Sport, however, was the real winner with all 200 competitors demonstrating excellent sportsmanship and determination over the course of a dull rainy day.
“It was inspiring seeing the enthusiasm and camaraderie of our young rising stars on display here today [7 April], pushing each other to excel to the best of their ability in adverse weather conditions,” SCS’ Manager Pre to Post Sport, Damien Kerr, remarked yesterday.
“Here’s the magic of teamwork; the players were able to consistently find ways to buoy each others’ spirits and excel despite the weather challenges.”
