Mission Statement

The focus of the women’s water polo club is to offer a competitive sport and team atmosphere for any Boston College female athlete who wishes to pursue the sport of water polo at the collegiate level. We make every effort to represent Boston College by consistently being a competitive member atop the North Atlantic division of the Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) with potential each year to qualify for, and participate in the CWPA National Tournament.

The team strives to assemble the best squad and play at the highest level possible given the constraints of being a club sport. We hope to preserve the integrity and caliber of our team by achieving a winning record, attaining a bid to Nationals, and being a formidable force at the national level. At the same time, the team will balance winning with the desire to offer a sport where any student can participate by improving their skills and being a part of a close team. Through performance and sportsmanship we are eager to be positive ambassadors for Boston College at all tournaments and team events.

Many students transitioning from high school to college lose the ability to participate in a sport at the varsity level, especially at a Division I university. However, club sports allow for continued athletic endeavors. As a dedicated club sport, the water polo team provides the challenge and team dynamic for which athletes yearn, while welcoming participants with a range of abilities. In addition, students can compete at various levels of play, stay in shape, be a part of a fun and energetic team, and represent Boston College.
