[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely, definitely definitely get your swimmer into water polo. Seriously. Less competition. Great scholarships to a bunch of good schools. I don’t know why more people don’t know this. [/quote]

Not all schools offer this.  How or where to get involved if your high schoool doesn’t have a team?[/quote]

It is a rich kid sport around here. Sea Devils has a team locally, as do some of the private schools. My midwestern public high school had a team 30 years ago, though.[/quote]

Can you provide a link to colleges water polo teams? Would be interested to see which schools have teams, offer scholarships, required standards etc. [/quote]

There are a good number of colleges in California with water polo teams, both male and female. The NCAA lists 21 colleges with Div 1 Mens Water Polo squads, 12 of which are easily recognizable by my as being in California. There are some located on the East Coast (Fordham, Brown, Harvard stood out)

There are about 40 Women's Div 1 Water Polo programs. This is probably because Water Polo squads are not all that large and they help meet the Title 9 sports balance issue. Football teams need to be balanced out so there are sports with more Female squads then Male squads. So get your girls playing Water Polo.
