Triton Water Polo Club Wind Up 2025-26
The end of the season came around quickly, and our Water Polo Club wind-up gave us the chance to celebrate the season that was!
It’s easy to forget how much gets packed into a season with many trainings, tough games, big wins and frustrating losses. This year had a bit of everything and the wind-up was the perfect way to relive it all with the people who were part of it.

More than anything, the night was a reminder that this club isn’t just about results. It’s about the people who show up week after week. Whether that’s at training, late-night games or behind the scenes making everything run smoothly.
A big thank you to our coaches, managers, and volunteers. The time and energy you put in is what keeps the club going, it does not go unnoticed.
Rest up, enjoy the break, and we’ll be back in the pool before we know it!
