About Us
Founded in 2002, Rose Bowl Water Polo is a Pasadena-based nonprofit dedicated to developing young athletes into confident, well-rounded individuals. For more than 20 years, we have built a tradition of excellence—growing into a nationally recognized program that develops not only skilled water polo players, but scholar-athletes who thrive in the pool, the classroom, and their communities.
We offer year-round programs for boys and girls ages 4 and up, creating a fun, challenging, and supportive environment for athletes of all experience levels. From first-time players to competitive high school athletes, our training emphasizes strong fundamentals, advanced skill development, and a deep understanding of the game. Along the way, we foster confidence, leadership, and sportsmanship that extend far beyond the pool.
Our athletes benefit from collegiate-level coaching, led by current and former NCAA Division I coaches alongside a passionate and experienced staff committed to every athlete’s growth.
Whether you’re just discovering the sport or striving to compete at the highest level, Rose Bowl Water Polo provides a clear pathway for development—while building lifelong friendships and achieving peak physical fitness.
