Fall
Boys Water Polo
The Cate boys water polo program is one on the rise.
Calling the state-of-the-art Emmett Horowitz Aquatic Center home amidst the backdrop of the Los Padres Mountains, there may not be a more inspiring training environment in the area. The location allows the team to challenge each member to be their best in a supportive and instruction-based program.
Boys learn the fundamentals of the game while emphasizing teamwork and camaraderie in an effort to build a strong foundation rooted in consistency, self-discipline, and sportsmanship.
These lessons learned through sport are important and easily applied in the classroom and in life.
