Water Polo NSW (WPNSW) advises the NSW water polo community that it will not adopt the Water Polo Australia (WPA) Sanctioning Policy announced today for WPNSW competitions. WPNSW adopted the World Aquatics rules in August 2026 and will continue to apply those rules across its competitions, supported by a NSW-based judiciary process.

It is with deep sadness that Water Polo NSW acknowledges the passing of our Life Member, Patricia 'Pat' Jones, one of the most significant figures in the history of our sport.
