UCL Water Polo Club provides 3 weekly pool training sessions and one training session every other week for players of all abilities. Our sessions are open to all levels, whether you have never played the sport before or have years of experience. It is great way for players to stay fit, learn about the game and, most importantly, HAVE FUN!
Our mixed team competes in the LUSL league. It is a great way for entry level players to experience the sport and get a real feel for playing competitively. We play against all other universities in London in a competitive league and trophy.
Our open team plays in the BUCS league and cup. We are coming off a successful season, coming first in our division and going to promotional playoffs. These competitions are the most competitive, playing against other universities across the country. We look forward to keeping the momentum going.
Find us in pubs across campus and Scala on a Wednesday for our weekly socials, including pub crawls, hunting the chicken, boat balls and much more. We will post our socials every week on instagram and whatsapp.
We also have a weekly year end tour, going to a new destination every year. Montenegro, Croatia and Italy have already been visited by UCL Water Polo so stay tuned to find out where we will be going this year!
Our weekly sessions are:
Monday evenings at the London Aquatics Centre , 8:30pm-10:00pm. *Please note this is a higher level, competitive training, not suitable for beginners!
Tuesday evenings at Tiller Leisure Centre, 8-9pm. this session is solely dedicated to those with less/no experience. We will teach you the basics of the sport and help you improve!
Friday evenings at the London Aquatic Centre, 7:30pm - 9:00pm. *Please note this is a higher level, competitive training, not suitable for beginners!
Our session every other Saturday is at Putney Leisure Centre 7:00pm -8:30pm. This is open for all levels within UCL Water polo
All of our weekly sessions are joint with the KCL Swimming and Water Polo society, it is a great opportunity to meet more people from a different university!
Our BUCS matches are mainly played on Wednesday afternoons, and our LUSL schedule varies more :)
If you have any questions or queries get in contact with our wonderful committee or message our Instagram/Whatsapp group!!
Full membership will need to be purchased in order to attend training sessions with the exception of one 'taster session' so you can get a feel for the club and for the sport.
"Training" membership is available for anyone who just wants to learn and train with the society
"Standard" membership is for those wishing to come to our trainings AND play in LUSL games (a London-uni based league). These tend to be less serious than BUCS matches where our selection is more flexible and games are less competitive.
"Competitive" membership is the ultimate UCL water polo experience... Get unrivalled access to 3 trainings, all LUSL matches, and all BUCS matches as well!* Treat yourself to utter freedom within the society.
"Affiliate" memberships are for people from other universities that want to train and play in LUSL with UCL
*Note to play in a match you must still be selected for the team by the captain, this membership is not a guarantee for your participation.
