Sharpen skills, grow game IQ and head into Metro with confidence. The UNSW Wests Development Camp brings together Olympic and international coaches to deliver a high-tempo, athlete-centred program for motivated junior players.
Starting this week is the 2024 Australian Water Polo League competition. The Australian Water Polo League Competition ("AWL") is Australia's premier domestic water polo competition and UNSW Wests fields a Women's team and a Men's team in the AWL. The Men’s team are known as the Magpies’. The Magpies have won 7 AWL Championships and recently won 3 in a row in 2019, (2020 incomplete), (2021 not held), 2022 and 2023! The Women's team, the 2018 AWL champions, are fondly known as the 'Killer Whales'.
