Hampshire League

This season we will be entering two teams into the Hampshire League.

To satisfy the demands of the League, each team has to be distinct and there can be no sharing of players between them.

The exact composition of each team will be decided on by December before the fixtures start in January.

Training Times Have Changed

As of yesterday, the times are ...

6:30pm -> 7:15pm - Mini polo
7:15pm -> 8:00pm - Ladies
8:00pm -> 8:30pm - Polo swim training
8:30pm -> 9:30pm - Juniors/Seniors

National League Results

Weymouth & Portland's first ever game in the National Water Polo League looked to be going well with a first half lead over Croydon Amphibians but by the final whistle we slumped to a 15-11 defeat.

Croydon's new superstar player scored 7 goals against us (and grabbed another 7 in their other game of the weekend).

The next game against City of Birmingham promised to be a tougher proposition given their league position last year but in the end it was a closer affair ending in a 11-9 defeat for us.

The next NWPL fixtures are at Ponds Forge on the 29th/30th September where we play Cambridge, Ealing and Newcastle. Based on the results so far, the Newcastle game is the one we have the best chance of winning.

National League Update

The National League team played two friendlies against Exeter and Newton Abbott on Sunday.

Held at Exeter's pool, the first game against Exeter didn't go too well and we took some time to start playing together as a team. Final score was something like 15 - 11.

The second game against Newton Abbott's national league team was a much different affair and we played very well to only lose by four or five goals. Newton were relegated down to Div III after last season but will probably start this as favourite to win that league.

This coming weekend is the first in the League; Divisions I, III and IV converge at Pond's Forge in Sheffield and our team has games against Croydon on Saturday evening and then Birmingham late Sunday afternoon. Birmingham should be the stronger team, finishing 3rd in Div IV last year whilst Croydon were 6th.
