San Jose Water Polo Foundation is a competitive water polo club that was created in 2016 with the goal to introduce athletes to sport and eventually compete at national level competitions.

How do we reach our goal? We believe in a team centered, athlete first approach.

Athletes and their development will be the goal of the coaching staff on a day-to-day basis. We will focus on improving the individual as a water polo player and as a person on the whole. Athletes will then learn how to apply their developed skills for the betterment of their team. 


Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better.
— Pat Riley, Miami Heat
