2019 The Momentum Continues....
Blue Thunder entered the Classic Division at the Surf City Tournament in February 2019. Many of the teams brought younger "Classic" players which challenged the Blue Thunder team. Our team was comprised of players ranging in age from mostly the mid-40's to 64 . The final place for the competition was 7th Place. With each game, the team showed improvement and discipline.
The March 1-3 2019 Blue Thunder - Enloe Academy Water Polo Camp was a huge success. A total of 60 participants came from various locations for 3 days of intense water polo sessions. Read more about the event on the 2019 Camp Summary page.

In March 2019, Greg and his staff built upon last year's Camp skills and strategies. These skills and strategies need to become part of every Club member's individual practice. They are the foundation for all tournament competitions.
In June 2019, Blue Thunder Masters entered 6 teams (out of 47 teams in the Men's Divisions) in the USAWP Masters Nationals. By far, the most from any Club. 3 of the BTMWPC Teams earned medals in their Divisions. Overall, the play was tough, everyone got to work on building as a team, practicing the skills from Camp and enjoying the spirit of playing water polo.
45+ Division: 5th Place
50+ Division: 3rd Place
60+ Division: 1st and 5th Place
65+ Division: 3rd and 4th Place
Competition opportunities in will be available for registration on the Tournament page as they become available.
