The ACT Boys Blue team finishing their final game in an epic 8-8 draw against NSW Academy for a joint bronze! ACT Boys Gold team finished in 8th place.
Well done to all players, coaches & managers!
SHOUTOUT TO BEN, EILIS & JADE
Shoutout to our Nordek athletes Ben Symington and Eilis Rogis who are in the USA to take part in the 2023 USA Water Polo Junior Olympics! Ben playing for the La Jolla United Water Polo Club in San Diego. Eilis playing for Kern Premier Water Polo in Bakersfield, California.
The USA Water Polo Junior Olympic Championships is an esteemed tournament where athletes and teams from across the nation compete on the national stage. It's great to have our Nordek players representing our club at such a prestigious event.
Jade Arnold is presently in the USA as a part of the Australian 17&U Water Polo team's tour and was further selected for the Australian Women’s Junior Development team. This is an amazing opportunity for Jade to further develop her skills and gain valuable international experience.
