25.01.2022 Dear members, It has been great to see everybody so keen to return to training and get back to playing water polo over the past week! However, as has been recently announced, metropolitan Melbourne will soon return to lockdown for the next six weeks. This has meant that we have unfortunately had to cancel training until further notice. We are still waiting on further information as to what Monash University and Water Polo Victoria policy is concerning training and fixtures. P...lease check your emails regularly for updates, stay safe and adhere to Victorian government guidelines. We hope to see you soon. Kind regards, Monash University Water Polo Committee
