While we do not know the first day of practice yet (est. August 1), we do know when practice will be. The typical season involves many early-season tournaments, so getting a fast start in important. Usually we have a tournament as early as the second weekend in August. The season runs through mid-October.

Westover Hills Club (8706 Westover Club Drive, Austin TX 78759) - for morning practices, closest to Anderson HS. The limited deep end restricts some of the practice activities but allows us more time in the water.
St. Stephen's School (6500 St. Stephen's Drive, Austin TX 78746) - the school's state-of-the-art aquatics facility provides all the space and amenities a championship team could need for training.
The team will also occasionally scrimmage other area teams at their facilities (e.g., Westlake HS or the Round Rock Aquatics Center). The typical competition calendar includes some open tournaments (often Friday-Saturday, including possible overnight tournaments in Houston, Dallas or San Antonio), individual games (sometimes Tuesdays or Fridays), and district tournaments (usually all-day Friday or Saturday).
Players must have their athletics physicals turned in and be registered with RankOneSports before they can participate. Visit AISD's athletics page to download the athletics physical form and go to the RankOneSports portal. You must have a new physical and new registration after April 2026 - turn them in to Coach Wilkinson or Coach Casper.
If you're new to water polo, bring a competition suit, goggles, cap (if needed) and towel to practice. Everything else will be there, ready to go. Arrive early to stretch and talk.
