What are the age groups in water polo?
Quite simply, your age in water polo is determined by the year you were born. Subract the current year from your birth year and you know your water polo age. For example, in 2010, someone born in December 1997 is considered to be water polo age 13. It does not matter what month you were born, only what year. In the United States, age groups are currently divided into 18&under, 16&under, 14&under, 12&under, and 10&under. So every player spends two years in one age group. So if your child is water polo 11, for example, she will be playing with 11 and 12 year olds for two years.
