Water Polo

ASA Aquatics Academy

HKIS Water Polo introduces students to the sport of Water Polo, an internationally played game promoting teamwork, invasion game strategy, and fitness. In Primary school, students play a fun, modified version of the game. The main focus is to blend fundamental skills and basics into a recreational format, allowing players to learn while ensuring maximum enjoyment and participation for all involved.

In Middle school, more dynamic aspects of water polo are developed in a safe yet challenging environment. The goal of the new Middle School Water Polo group is to introduce students to the sport of water polo and to develop fundamental skills, strategies, and mindset required for the game.

Two different sessions are offered in Primary school; an Exploration group from 3 to 4PM and a Development group from 4 to 5PM.

Exploration group:

Can be of any grade level in UP
Must have at least swimming level 3
No or little (eg one term of ASA) prior experience with water polo

Development group:

Grade 4 and 5 students new to water polo must have at least swimming level 4

MS Water Polo will be offered in the new DCAA on Thursdays from 3:10-4:10 pm.
