Junior Water Polo North Islands 2025
Our Junior Water Polo teams recently competed at the North Island Secondary Schools’ Cup, hosted by Water Polo New Zealand.

Dio B competed in the Girls Division 2 competition, facing tough opposition throughout the round robin stage. After several close games, they secured enough points to progress to the final. There, they met Waikato Diocesan, a team they had lost to earlier in the competition by one goal, but the girls delivered an outstanding performance and claimed an impressive 6–3 victory. Congratulations to all the players, and thank you to coach Shinae Carrington (2018) and manager Tonya McNeil.

Dio A competed in Division 1 and had a phenomenal tournament, going undefeated throughout pool play. They won their semifinal against Epsom 11–4, before meeting St Cuthbert’s A in a thrilling final, where they sealed the championship with a 6–4 win. Congratulations to the team, coach Angie Winstanley-Smith, and manager Nathan Coe.

A special shoutout to Henrietta Yarrell-Stevenson who was named Division 1 Most Valuable Player at the Water Polo Junior North Islands Secondary School’s Cup.

Scarlett Brown was also named in the Top 5 Most Voted for Division 2.

These selections are collated from votes by coaches throughout the tournament.
