Polo

Canoe Polo is basically water polo, in canoes! Teams of five players pass the ball in order to move closer to the opponent’s goal, ultimately to achieve good shooting positions and score a goal!

Type of Boat

For official competitions all competitors use an internationally regulated type of kayak. The design combines sprinting speed with aggressive manoeuvrability and is usually padded at each end to prevent injury. Other injury prevention measures include thicker paddle blades and face guards. Here at ULKC we are fully stocked with all the necessary  boats and safety gear for a Polo Competition. We train weekly in the 50meter Pool at the UL Sport Arena.
