UCSB Men's Water Polo Club

UCSB Men's Water Polo Club UCSB Men's Water Polo Club is a close knit group of highly motivated student athletes, brought together by their passion for water polo. OLE!

The UCSB Men's Water Polo Club is a student run organization focused on giving students enrolled at UCSB an opportunity to participate in the sport of water polo. We provide the pool-space and equipment required for our athletes to practice regularly and improve their skills as a team and as individuals. As a UCSB Rec-Sport Club, our players gain access to important assets such as athletic trainers and physical therapy. This club emphasizes friendly competition, strong work ethic, and the creation of long lasting friendships among teammates. Since its establishment in 2006, the club has been rapidly growing in both number of players and ability. During the Fall 2016 CWPA League tournament we fielded two full teams, finishing 4th and 6th in the Pacific Coast Division. Although we are not playing in the Pacific Coast Division this year, we look forward to participating in the Fall 2018 season. During the Fall 2017 season we will be staying competitive by scheduling games and attending tournaments hosted by our fellow collegiate water polo club teams. We hope to see you at our practices!

Hey Everyone! Due to our lack of a website and inability to meet in person, this page will be our way of communicating to incoming prospective players for the 2020-2021 School Year.

Due to COVID unfortunately this fall we are unable to practice or compete. Practices are indefinitely suspended until at least winter quarter, and CWPA (the organization which runs our main season) has postponed our league until sometime at the beginning of the next calendar year. While we are unsure if these will resume, we can say with certainty that there will be no Water Polo activities in the fall.

However if you are a new player, watch for updates on this page and also email at [email protected] to join an email list with any new updates. In the mean time, please watch our recently uploaded video on how our normal season would look, it should answer most questions you have about our club!

Informational video for incoming players on what our normal season would look like if COVID was not here (so hopefully what to expect in the coming years). While we are unable to do any Water Polo activities in the fall, we hope that by next quarter we will begin to be able to resume some practices and have a delayed season. Please email us at [email protected] concerning any more questions.

Additionally, if you stopped by our table and put your name and email down, then you should have received an email from us with some important dates and other information.
