CHAWP Participation Expectation

Per board policy, CHAWP Water Polo Club holds the following views regarding our athletes:

Skill Development and Team Cohesion: Regular practice is crucial for honing individual skills, improving teamwork, and developing a cohesive understanding of plays and strategies. Consistent participation in practice contributes to both individual and collective potential.

Preparation and Safety: Practices allow athletes to properly train and prepare their bodies for the demands of competition, minimizing the risk of injury. It also ensures that all team members are on the same page regarding tactics and safety precautions.

Team Rules and Policies: Many athletic organizations and teams have specific attendance policies that require a certain percentage of practice attendance for athletes to be eligible to compete. Failing to meet these requirements can lead to warnings, reduced playing time, or even suspension. 

CHAWP Refund Policy

Per board policy, CHAWP Water Polo Club will not give refunds for session fees, tournament entry fees, travel fees or equipment fees.
