Junior Olympics are here but there more news than just that. A brief dive in to what’s going on with AQTX Waterpolo.
Junior Olympics

You can follow all their games here in the “18U_F_Classic” tab. Meanwhile our Longhorn friends arrived in California early to play in the John Hale Tournament in California’s 105-degree Inland Empire. There the fell to Orange County powerhouse CDM (Corona del Mar) in the DII Championship match, 6-5. Well done to all of them and good luck at JOs!
Competition Schedule
We’re still looking to fill out rosters for two more tournaments this summer. Don’t delay: log on and commit if you’re ready to go. Deadlines are always a week prior to the tournament at the latest so we need commitments for the Titan Tournament by July 26. (Junior Olympic commitments are over a month in advance of the actual competition, something to keep in mind for 2020).
- Aug 3-4: Titan Summer Spectacular, all age groups including open, The Colony, TX
- Aug 24-25: Zilla Beach Water Polo Tournament, all age groups including open/masters, Lake Travis, TX
August Schedule
We’ve filled out the schedule for August, which is identical to July’s. The fall season will begin just after school starts.
