Three Ways To Play

From the first cannonball to championship sets — there's a spot in the FCWP pool for every kid.

10U – 18U • Boys & Girls

Water Polo

Year-round competitive teams where kids sharpen their game, travel to tournaments, and grow as leaders — surrounded by teammates who become lifelong friends.

Register →
Ages 5–12 • Beginners

LittleFoot Splashball

A safe, shallow-end introduction to the sport for beginners ages 5–12. Plenty of games, splashing, and confidence-building — the perfect first step before joining a team.

💦Heads up: athletes must be able to swim 1 lap unassisted.

Competitive • All levels

Competitive Swim Team

A true competitive swim team — this isn't swim school or lessons. We train to race, building real speed and stamina with stroke-focused workouts that power athletes in the pool and at meets.

The payoff

Why Water Polo?

It's so much more than a sport — here's what your athlete really takes home.

01

Teamwork

Six players, one heartbeat. Polo teaches kids to trust, talk, and win together.

02

Discipline

Treading water builds grit — show-up-and-grind habits that carry into the classroom.

03

New Friends

The squad becomes the friend group. Carpools, team dinners, and lifelong crews.

04

College Scholarships

Water polo opens doors. Our coaches help athletes get seen and recruited at the next level.

05

Well-Rounded

Strength, speed, smarts, and sportsmanship — the ultimate all-around athlete.

06

Confidence & Fitness

Strong body, strong mind. Kids stand taller in and out of the pool.

Does my child need any experience?+
Not at all — and honestly, that's our specialty. Most of our athletes start as complete beginners, and our coaches are great at making first-timers feel right at home. If your kid is comfortable in the water, we'll teach them the rest.
Is there really a free trial?+
Yes, and we mean it — the first two weeks are completely free for every new athlete. Just come to a practice, say hi, and jump in. No forms, no commitment, no pressure. We'd love to meet you.
What does it cost?+
Fees run from $350 to $600 per session depending on age group — our youngest groups are the most affordable, with high school at the top. That covers coaching, pool time, and equipment for the whole session. We offer payment plans or pay-in-full, and we never want cost to be the reason a kid can't play — if money's tight, just reach out and we'll work with you.
What do session fees cover?+
It all goes right back to your athlete — coaching (1–2 coaches per practice, per team), pool rental, and team equipment. Everything we need to run a great season.
Are there game fees too?+
A little extra on game weekends, yes. Game fees are billed to your account afterward — usually around $25 a game, with about four games a weekend. We aim for two weekends a month and 10–16 games a session, so your athlete gets plenty of real game experience.
Do we need a uniform?+
Just a couple of pieces — a Foothill suit and a bit of branded gear so the team looks sharp on deck and your kid feels like part of the squad. You can grab it all anytime from our Team Store.
How are age groups decided?+
By “water polo age” — how old your athlete will be on August 1. Not sure? Pop a birthday into our Age Group Calculator just above and it'll point you to the right group.
What should we bring?+
Easy — a swimsuit, towel, water bottle, and goggles. That's all you need to get started, and we'll walk you through caps and gear once you're on a team.
Where and when are practices?+
We train at five great pools around the Inland Empire — see Our Pools on the Schedule page for locations. Each team’s weekly times are posted under Water Polo Practice Times up top — just tap your team to see its schedule.
How do we register?+
Pick your program up top — Water Polo, Summer Splashball, or Swim Team — and follow the link. Stuck or have a question? Call (909) 294-6628 or email info@foothillclubwaterpolo.org and a real person will help.

Meet The Surf ’Squatch

Big, fuzzy, and always throwing a shaka — our Surf ’Squatch has roamed these foothills since day one. He carries the mountains on his board and the whole #FoothillFamily on his back.

Spot him on our caps, suits, and pool deck. He's proof that working hard and having a blast aren't opposites — they're teammates.
