A big thanks to all players and parents for 'hanging on in there' as the season got off to a faltering start.
With the change in water polo organiser coinciding with the refurbishment of the Leisure Centre pool (and subsequent delays), things have been a little chaotic. It wasn't helped by our school being known by two names in the fixtures list, leading to some players missing Sunday's first Y7/8 match. We have asked that we be known as either Wentworth or WW in future listings.
Unfortunately, due to the mix-up and illness, we did not manage to field a full team at either of the Y7/8 matches meaning that we were forced to forfeit both of those games. However a big thanks to those who played; it is all good practise.
In the Fast Five team we managed to field a complete team and what a great game! I was impressed by the excellent passing and powerful goal shoots. It was a really good effort by all of you.
We have a break with the Queen's Birthday holiday so the next matches will be on Sunday, 10th June. I will email a fixtures update the week before.
