Hello Year 5s! We’re going straight to the point here, water polo is not for the faint-hearted! However, if you would like to challenge yourself and try something new, this is definitely the CCA for you!

Rest assured that you will be in the good hands of your seniors who will gladly assist you during training. Many of us were new to the sport as well, but under the patient guidance of our coaches, we were all able to pick up the sport relatively quickly! Both the boys’ and girls’ teams managed to take home silver in 2022 and the boys attained Gold for the 2023 A-Division Water Polo National School Games!

The crowd watches on eagerly as the opponent server tosses the ball high in the air. In three quick steps, the player jumps and serves the ball to the opposite court. Players clad in green, black and white ready themselves for the incoming ball. 

The first one bends low, provides a perfect platform for the ball to bounce off, and it flies back up in a high arch. 

An agile setter weaves between players and goes for the set. The ball lands in his hands before being launched from nimble fingers to the left of the court.

What do you picture when you think of Track and Field? Do you envision long, arduous training under the hot sun, sore muscles, and exhausted athletes? With training sessions three times a week, you are absolutely right, though we go much further beyond that.

Because when you look back at your JC days, your fondest memories will be the times we cried, bled, and laughed together. Of course, medals and trophies are wonderful, but the real treasure is the friends we make along the way. They say that the strongest bonds are forged in adversity—when you’re battered and spent, and you can’t depend on your body to move on, what you count on are your teammates.

“Dump. Half. Run.” What does that mean? These are some of the most basic yet important skills a touch player has to master before challenging herself to this game.
