Summer Water Polo Camps

Kentwood will be having practices (open for boys and girls) on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting June 10th from 12-2 p.m. Open polo (scrimmages) is scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday nights from 8-9:00 p.m. There will not be any water polo during the week of July 4th due to the MHSAA blackout period.

It is recommended you consider the summer program at East Grand Rapids (Run by the Rockford coach – Dave McWatters). This program allows the boys to meet and play polo with kids from other teams and skill levels. The EGR camp runs on opposite days as the EK camp, but at the same time. Get more information HERE.

Additionally, I have included some week long camps around the country for athletes that are interested. The price range is between $400-600 without transportation to location and the locations vary from Michigan to California.
