Spring break is here. We hope everyone enjoys their time off and we’ll see you again at practice on Monday, March 24. A few important items before we take off.
Southside Spring Tournament
The Southside Spring Tourney in Pearland is on April 6-7 for our 14u athletes. Make sure you sign up so we know who’s going (with Longhorn as usual).
AQTX Mini High School Tournament
We have added another high school tournament to the schedule. The AQTX West Region HS Waterpolo Mini-tourney will take place on Saturday, March 30. We’ll be contacting our high school families once again to volunteer for the day. Our 14u families will be volunteering the following day for a Lone Star event so we appreciate all our high school families pitching in.
Lone Star League
The following day we are hosting Lone Star Spring League Game Day 2. All our 14u athletes are expected to play but please edit your commitment online regardless.
Update on March 8-9 Tournament
Our hosting of the AQTX West Region tournament on the 8th and 9th earned AquaTex some very good feedback from the participants. Full credit to all our hard working volunteers. And it contributed to the growth of water polo with our club. AquaTex is working toward purchasing its own set of game and shot clocks at least partially as a result of our success hosting on the 8th-9th.
Welcome
Coach Neil Shapiro is the newest member of our coaching staff. Neil began his playing career in Paso Robles, CA after which he played center at UC Irvine. He will join us more often as the season progresses but is currently scheduled for Wednesday evening practices. Welcome to Central Texas water polo, Neil!
Tues/Thurs HS Practices
Many of our high school athletes have already started to practice on Tuesday and Thursday nights. AquaTex has extended its high school programming in order to help local teams get more practice and scrimmage time. If you are in high school and are interested, contact ">Coach James for more information.
Have a great break. We’ll see you on the deck soon.
