Summer is here...The SEASON is approaching very fast

Boys,
The summer is here.  The high school season begins in less than 3 months.  What are your plans for the summer?  I am sure hoping it involves playing for Legacy and swimming.  See below how to get plugged in at Legacy for the summer and Junior Olympics.  We are building our Junior Olympic teams as we speak.  Get on the list if you want to try to make those squads and get some REALLY great experience.  We will be merging with Otter Bay for the summer to combine forces for JO's which will be awesome.  See bottom of this post for info and what you need to do to get involved for JO's.  Don't miss this opportunity.

Legacy Pre-Session starts May 18.  Sign up here http://www.legacypolo.com/pre-summer--summer-registration.html

Summer presents itself with tons of opportunities.  Vacation with family, summer job, playing other sports.  It's tough to fit it all in.  I will say that however that it is important to fit water polo into the picture as much as possible.  It has gotten more and more competitive in our program.  It is important to put in work in the offseason to be in shape, sharpen your game and to improve before the high school season begins.

If you truly want to get really good at this game, please pay attention to this...You can gain almost an entire "season's" worth of experience in one summer.   If you commit and attend Legacy practices, conditioning workouts and tournaments during the summer it is equivalent to a high school season.  If you are going to be a junior next year, wouldn't it be incredible if you came into the season with a senior level of experience????  That's what can happen if you put the work in.

Remember, not much about this game is easy, but that's what makes it fun :)

IT'S JO TIME !!!
Legacy Water Polo is ready to rock for the upcoming USA Water Polo Junior Olympic Tournament.  As a proud parent of a JO participant, I can confirm that this is a great time. The tournaments are well-run, well-refereed and the play is fantastic. I urge parents to go all-in and try and make every game.

All Legacy needs in order to have the best JO experience ever is committed, excited players.  

 
We want you!!!

 

 
In order to play with us in this amazing event:

  4. I am going to be the main logistics coordinator for the JO run. (Carl will be running the teams and the practices, but there is a lot of behind the scenes stuff that needs to be done).
