Hawke's Bay Water Polo Association

We here at Hawkes Bay Water Polo Association are so lucky to have such an awesome team driving this new sport in the region. Our committee is made up of 10 superstar volunteers, who devote hours of their time to help this small but fast-growing club. We aim to create a platform where anyone of any ability can come and learn this amazing team sport. You will see our committees always poolside at every event, helping out where needed. If you see any of us in our uniform, please feel free to say hi!
