Festival of open-air water polo comes to Nantwich

22/5/2019

 
Some of the young guns of English water polo dived into Nantwich Outdoor Pool in Cheshire, England, on Saturday for the MANUP! Junior Edition festival of open-air water polo.

The festival was the first in a series of three unique open-air events being run by MANUP! Water Polo this year. Packaworld is sponsoring the series by providing portable Water Polo Packagoals for all matches.

MANUP! Water Polo Co-founder Craig Stowell said the Nantwich event attracted 10 teams from across England with players aged 15 and under. Liverpool-based Bridgefield Water Polo Club finished in first place, beating City of Sheffield Water Polo Club in a hard-fought final.

“It was a great day out and a real showcase of the talented young players that are emerging in England," he said.
"It was our first festival event aimed at junior players and it was fantastic to see so many in the pool giving it their all.”

The portable Water Polo Packagoals were chosen because of their portability and professional quality. They made set up easy and performed well throughout the tournament, Mr Stowell said.

Among those watching the 18 May event was Packaworld Chief Executive Peter Roberts. He said he was impressed with the quality of play and the professionalism of the organisers.

“The team at MANUP! are doing a brilliant job of raising awareness of water polo and taking the game to new locations. The young players had a fantastic time and the open-air venue made for a wonderful event.”

MANUP! Water Polo is an event series bringing the sport of water polo from the confines of indoor swimming pools out into open air locations.

Other MANUP! Water Polo events scheduled to take place this year include open water events at Liverpool’s historic Albert Dock on 22 June and a return to the location of last year’s inaugural MANUP! event at Dock 9 Media City, Salford Quays, Manchester, on 3 August.
