Australian 16&U Girls and 16&U Boys squads announced

Published Mon 17 Feb 2020

Water Polo Australia is pleased to announce the 16&U Boys and 16&U Girls Australian squads.

Players from across the country have been selected in the squads, with representatives from Queensland, New South Wales, ACT, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia filling the spots on offer.

The extended squads will come together for a training camp during the April school holidays before the squad members compete for their respective states at the 2020 WPA National Championships in Adelaide from 21-24 May.

Shortly after the National Championships, a touring party squad will be named ahead of the 2020 FINA 16&U Water Polo World Championships in Larissa/Volos (GRE) and 2020 Pan Pacific Youth Water Polo Festival in Auckland (NZL), both to be held in July this year.

The Australia team selected to attend the FINA 16&U Water Polo World Championships will have the privilege in participating in the event's inaugural year, set to be one of FINA's largest water polo tournaments with both male and female teams competing at the one location.
