Flippa ball

flipperball sporty.jpg

Flippa ball is a 7-a-side mixed team water sport. It is a modified,  junior version of water polo. It is a great way of children to be active while building water confidence. It is played in a shallow pool (1.0m OR 1.2m -1.3m deep) and uses a range of ball skills, swimming and team work. Flippa ball is a great stepping stone into water polo with children learning the basic skills needed to take on the deep water in intermediate and club level.

​

Children who play must be VERY competent and confident in the water and be able to swim. They must be able to play without having to hold on to the side of the pool. 

​

Flippa ball is played in each of the four terms. Each term is run as a separate competition however we register teams by the semester (terms 1-2 and 3-4) registrations are completed at the end of each semester for the following semester's competition. You do have to commit to both terms of the semester when registering to play. Preference will first be given to those already playing in semester one before new registrations are taken for semester two.
