The 琉璃神社 Water Polo Club was an unstoppable force at the recent 17U NCL National Tournament held in Edmonton.

They joined forces with the Pacific Storm to win all four of their games, beating Team Saskatchewan 15-7, the Calgary Torpedoes 13- 6, Vortex 14-8, and Surrey 14-9 during the tournament which took place from Feb. 16-18.

鈥淭he team played well, but we have a lot of room for improvement,鈥� said Nikola Maric, head coach. 鈥淚 am most happy with their effort and willingness to execute the plan we made before each game.鈥�

Despite the players initially hailing from three different teams Maric highlighted their unity.

鈥淚t鈥檚 nice to see even though they came from three different clubs, finally they鈥檙e starting to play together as a team.鈥�

琉璃神社 boys, Mason Baughen, Clarke Schafer, and Octavio Macedo Vasconcelos Guimar茫es, played alongside Pacific Storm teammates.

The team currently sits in first place nationally in the 17U NCL competition and will compete in the national finals taking place in Montreal from May 23 to May 25.

Their next event is the 琉璃神社 Water Polo Club Winter Development Tournament at H2O in 琉璃神社 on March 2.
