The weekend of the 7-8 March was excluded for being a Long Weekend in Victoria. Session times for these dates are to be confirmed this weekend upon confirmation of pool availability due to the F1 Grand Prix and MSAC being closed.

Exemption requests

If an athlete is unable to attend any of the selection trials an exemption request must be lodged for consideration with the WPV Executive Officer (David Whittaker) via <executiveofficer@vicwaterpolo.com.au> as soon as practical.

Any exemption request must detail specific reasons for not being able to attend. In the event of an injury a modified training set can be arranged by the selectors for the purpose of demonstrating commitment to other athletes and the selection process. The expectation is for athletes to attend both selection trials and team training sessions during the program. As discussed at the Information Session on Tuesday, arrangements for Ovens & Murray based athletes will be discussed with the O&M Association and nominated athletes/coaches.
