High-energy, skill-building program for athletes ages 9–11 who are ready to advance beyond beginner-level play. Designed for boys and girls who are confident swimming the length of a 25m pool (3ft–6ft deep), Kraken Raising focuses on developing solid water polo fundamentals in a fun, positive, and supportive team environment. Players will build essential skills such as ball handling, passing, shooting, movement in the water, and basic game awareness, while learning sportsmanship, teamwork, and confidence in the pool.
