WATER POLO PROWESS

Water polo is a rapidly growing sport on the St Charles College campus, this growth has been fuelled by the passion and drive of both the boys and the coaching staff. We are fortunate to have two full-time staff members coaching the boys namely, Mr Brett Croeser and Mr Mark Hatton; both of whom have faithfully served the programme for a number of years now and have seen the programme grow immeasurably. Towards the end of 2022 we had the exciting addition of two new coaches; Mr Martin Binedell, a former Olympian, and Mr Michael Duckham, who also represented South Africa in the pool. The addition of these two has added a wealth of knowledge and experience to the aquatics programme as a whole.

We always strive to offer competitive fixtures to the boys in the programme and as such we are beginning to punch well above our weight. All done whilst playing the game with the correct attitude and maintaining respect. With some exciting developments for aquatics in the pipeline, we look forward to seeing the programme continue to grow from strength to strength.

The future is certainly looking bright for the Blue and Gold in the Pool.
