About Our Program

Bay Area Polo is a great chance to learn and play the sport of water polo or continue to grow your skills from the top coaches in the area. Our practices will be held at Saint Francis High School and will be coached by Brendon Reutebuch, SFHS Women’s Head Coach and nine time CCS champion, and Erin Inkster, SFHS Varsity Assistant for the past seven seasons. We are committed to high-level water polo training paired with strong fundamentals and intense competition. We design our training sessions to teach a variety of skills to athletes of varying abilities. We offer youth water polo to athletes ages 10-14. Girls and boys have the opportunity to learn from outstanding coaches while they master their skills in organized scrimmages and game situations. From shooting to passing to scrimmaging, players will gain strength in the areas needed to be successful in the water. Also, experienced high school players will be in the pool aiding in the development of your player.
