Junior Development
The Tuggeranong Vikings Water Polo Club is committed to the development of junior players in the Tuggeranong Valley and the ACT region and, as noted above, has a strong record in this area. The Vikings club often conducts programs designed specifically to introduce children and new members to the sport. These programs are run by fully accredited coaches, including former Olympians Rene Bol and Kim Terrell, and are closely supervised. The Club is heavily involved in ACT Water Polo Inc development programs with a number of Viking Coaches involved in Junior Development at the elite level and the club has also been extremely successful in the ACT Water Polo local Junior Competitions. All our Juniors are encouraged to train with the Seniors when they are comfortable, to further develop their skills.
