Saturday Showdowns to showcase WA’s best Water Polo talent – A-Grade to be Launched as Perth Water Polo League
In an exciting move to boost spectator engagement and elevate the competition’s profile, the Senior State League A-Grade Men and Women’s divisions will officially be renamed Perth Water Polo League (PWL). The action commences on 12 October at Bicton Pool aims to create a new, energetic atmosphere around the Saturday matches hosted at the picturesque Bicton Pool, encouraging fans, families, and the broader community to rally behind their teams.
The newly rebranded Perth Water Polo League will continue to feature the same high-quality, action-packed games but with an added focus on building community spirit. Moving these premier matches to Saturdays ensures that even more spectators can attend, transforming the weekend into a local sporting celebration.
Lorraine Donachie, A/CEO of Water Polo WA, shared the vision behind the renaming: “WA has a rich history of producing top-level water polo and the change to Perth Water Polo League better represents the true nature of the competition in our State at this level. Wit matches hosted at the Bicton pool on Saturdays offers a magnificent riverside backdrop and prime place for all water polo fans new and old to come together and celebrate the best in the sport”
With this new identity, PWL is poised to be a must-see event for sports enthusiasts of all ages. Each match promises high-level competition, thrilling action, and an electric atmosphere that will make Saturdays the highlight of the week for Water Polo and general sports’ fans alike.
