SCS Waterpolo

Junior Report

The Junior Water Polo Team faced a lot of challenges throughout the season. The girls in the team played extremely well throughout the games and improved highly from the beginning of the season. Although the team lost tough games, they also gained a few wins! The games the team did lose did not drop their heads and the effort was consistent throughout the season. The team had loads of fun playing and getting to know each other, many being year sevens! We congratulate the Junior Water Polo Team for their season, especially to the courageous Year Sevens for their first season.

Intermediate Report

The intermediate Waterpolo Team for 2023 had some ups and downs throughout the season. The team faced many wins and a few losses. The games were either held at Dawn Fraser or Auburn pool. The intermediate team pushed through and progressed to the Sydney Catholic Schools Waterpolo Championship. There was some tough competition with the girls losing our first game against St Clares, Waverly. We progressed to the second game, playing for third place. The team swam and played their best but unfortunately could not take third spot. It was great season overall for the intermediate girls team, with many students not only learning new skills but making new friends.

Senior Report

The Senior Waterpolo Team in 2023 were full of strong, resilient and humble players. Games were played weekly switching between ocean pool, Dawn Fraser, Balmain, with the sting-rays! Or in the chlorine pool at Auburn Swim Centre. The team faced tough competition from the two grand finalists teams, Domremy, Five Dock and St Clares Waverly, although the tough games didn’t let the girls’ heads to drop. Against Rosebank, the team were able to play some incredible Waterpolo and gain some wins on the board. Ending in third position, allowed the team to proceed to the Sydney Championships. The day was full of tough competition against familiar opponents, Domremy and St Clares. Although, a game against Marist Penshurst allowed the Woolwich girls talents to shine and gain an easy win. 

The team had a successful, fun, unforgettable season that for many of the year twelve players, it was their last. We congratulate their achievements and contributions to waterpolo during their MSCW experience and to the rest of the team for a great season.
