Age Group Teams promote the student athlete with a balanced and efficient training and competitive schedule.
Age Group Teams placement is based on the athlete's age as of August 1, 2026, participation, skill level, and work ethic.
Age Group Teams are offered in 3 Sessions: Fall (September - December) and Main Season (January-July), August (Fun Skill + Scrimmage month)

IMPORTANT REMINDER: All OVAC members must be registered with USA Water Polo prior to their first day of water polo training and maintain current membership status. OVAC athletes are required to be a Gold Member, affiliated with Origine Dei Vincitori Aquatics Club. Please follow link to register:
AGE DETERMINATION: A player’s age division is determined by the athlete’s age on August 1st of the year in which the tournament is being held. If a player is 14 years old on August 1 of the upcoming Summer, they are eligible to compete in the 14U division. If an athlete turns 15 on July 31, his/her age is 15 on August 1st and is therefore not eligible for the 14U division. They are, however, able to participate in the 16U division. They are, however, able to participate in the 16U division and some 14U competitions (comp. rule dependent).
REGISTRATION & PAYMENT: We use a registration system called SportNinja. For first time users you will need to create an account as the parent first and then create a player profile for each of your players from there. Please make sure you include your player's USA Water Polo Membership # in the "Governing Body ID" when filling in your player's information.
***Please note: Tournament and League costs are in addition to your membership registration
TEAM PLACEMENT: Team Placement and athlete grouping is based on athletes age, participation, skill level, and work ethic.
SWIM TO WIN: This is a dedicated conditioning practice scheduled on select “off days” throughout the week. These sessions are held separately to ensure that swim training does not take away from water polo drills, tactics, or scrimmages. While attendance is not mandatory, please note that participation is an important factor in the overall evaluation process and will be considered when determining team placement.
