We are holding small groups of swim and ball handling training during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under guidelines from the state and local health departments, we are required to follow strict guidelines. We maintain 6 feet of distance at all times, and require masks at all times when not in the water. We have a very organized training, along with pick up and drop off being monitored.
Current members are all required to follow our COVID-19 training guidelines. USA water polo as well as Back Bay Aquatics Foundation will require a waiver and liability form signed prior to participation.
