Our club has teams playing at all levels from Mini to Senior. Dollard Water Polo teams have won numerous National Championships over the past few years. This year the 16U, 18U, 22U and Senior groups are planning to participate in these Championships.

Many of our players have been chosen to represent Quebec in international competition over the next 2 years. As well, some of the athletes are trying out to be chosen to represent Canada on the Canadian National Junior teams that will also participate in international competitions. Over the coming years some of these athletes will graduate to Canada’s National Senior teams.
