Co-Ed Inner Tube Water Polo  New!
The sport of Inner Tube Water Polo is all about having fun and making friends. Imagine playing Water Polo, but instead of swimming you are floating in an inner tube. You still get all of the excitement of Water Polo without the risk! An Inner Tube Water Polo team consists of six people in the water. When the whistle blows the two teams paddle after the ball in the middle of the pool. Points are scored by throwing the ball past the other team's goalie and into the goal. The main rule is that you need to be in your inner tube to pass or shoot the ball, and this is where Inner Tube Water Polo gets interesting! The team with the most points at the end of the game wins. We would love to offer this exciting new program for adults! Please contact Kati if you are interested in participating:  810-987-6400 ext. 128 or kati@bluewaterymca.com.
