Waterpolo

We wear tight suits, get wet and play with balls.  And we love it.

Our team is mixed and includes everyone from beginners to pros, freshers to alumni.  We welcome anyone- you only need to know how to swim and we’ll teach you the rest.

The rules are easy: one swimming pool, one ball, two goals.  7 players per team in the pool at a time, unlimited substitutions, 4 quarters of 7 mins each.  You can only use one hand (except the goalie) and no touching the bottom!

Training is twice a week:  Mondays 9pm at Charing Cross hospital pool (map).

We play in the ULU league and have occasional friendlies throughout the season, including the annual students vs consultants match!  2011 saw us come runners-up in the ULU league and we’re looking to top that this season.  Medics who want to play more often can also compete in BUCS in a composite IC/ICSM team (Training Times).

And, as if playing water polo isn’t already enough fun,  we have regular socials as a club and an annual weekend tour to somewhere in england where there’s no chance of running into anyone we know…for enquiries about what happens on tour, email the club captain Brad Sanders.  Other big events are the Christmas Curry, Consultant’s Dinner and the End of Season Dinner in Summer.

If you’re curious about the sport and want to try it out, if you already play or if you just want to wear a skimpy suit in the pool, get involved!
