Sandwell Aquatics Club Water Polo

15/04/2026

Tough result for the team today as Sandwell fell to a 21–6 defeat at home against a well-drilled and experienced Northampton side.

Despite the scoreline, there were positives to take, with Harlie leading the scoring with 4 goals and Arman adding 2. The effort and commitment were there, but Northampton’s organisation and experience proved the difference on the day.

We regroup, learn, and go again 💪

🤽🏻‍♂️ NAG Open U17 Preliminary Round Recap 🤽🏻‍♂️

On 1st & 2nd March, 11 talented Sandwell players, alongside coaches Terri & John Halstead and Team Manager Eddie Smart, traveled to Haberdashers Askes School for Boys for the Swim England National Age Group Championships (NAGs) Open U17 Preliminary Round. 🏅

In Group A, Sandwell competed against Sutton & Cheam, Worthing, Northampton, and Hucknall. The first game was a nail-biter, with Sandwell drawing with Sutton & Cheam and securing a thrilling penalty shoot-out victory. 🙌 Sam’s incredible save and three successful penalty shots gave Sandwell the extra point! 💪

Day 1 saw a tough loss to a strong Worthing team, but Sandwell bounced back on Day 2 with impressive wins over Northampton and Hucknall. 🌟 Despite finishing third in Group A—just one point behind the top two teams—Sandwell narrowly missed out on advancing to the next round. 💔

A highlight of the weekend? A fun football match between games on Day 2—perfect for team bonding and showcasing the endless energy of our young athletes! ⚽
