Riders Polo 2021-2022

IMPORTANT DATES AND INFO FOR 2024-2025 SEASON

About Rough Rider Water Polo

Roosevelt Boys Water Polo is a High School Club team that plays in the Puget Sound Water Polo League. The Club is run by parent volunteers to provide students with competitive and recreational opportunities to play water polo. The Riders consistently rank among the best in Washington. Former players have gone on to play collegiate polo at Division 1 programs.

The water polo season starts in September and runs through November. Experienced and novice athletes alike are encouraged to join the program. Eligibility to join the Roosevelt Water Polo team will follow Puget Sound Water Polo League Rules which reference the WIAA handbook. See Eligibility criteria.

For more information on joining our team contact the parent boosters at rooseveltwaterpolo@gmail.com.

WATER POLO Team Store is Now Open!

Each of the Fall teams now have their own storefront open for a limited time: The order deadline is 9/15/2022. Click HERE to access the WATER POLO STORE!

Fan gear is offered for families and fans as a fundraiser for the Roosevelt Athletic Boosters Club (RAB) General Fund. The General Fund gives grants to teams who need help paying for uniforms, equipment, training, field rental, coaches, and more. 

The General Fund also helps pays for Roosevelt’s on-site Athletic Trainer and her supplies. Last year alone, the RAB contributed almost $11,000 toward the Athletic Trainer program and gave out nearly $17,000 in team grants including helping Boy's Water Polo offset pool rental costs!

Please consider making a purchase and supporting your athletes today! Please note: items are final sale and gear will be sent 10-14 days after the store closes. The RAB will organize distribution.
