CL stands for Community League, and was previously known as Provincial League. Community League water polo in Saskatchewan is structured to provide ongoing competition for the water polo clubs throughout the province.
The League games are scheduled for ages 10U (Mini), 13U (Atom), 15U (Bantam), and Open (16+). Each club can enter one or more teams into each of these categories to compete against other clubs in the province.
Mini 10U: 2014 & later
Atom 13U: 2011-2013
Bantam 15U: 2009-2010
Open 16+ 2008 & earlier
Senior of one category can request an exemption to play up two divisions by submitting the Athlete Age Exemption Request and Waiver to the Community League Manager, Taylor Molde at taylor@wpsask.ca. Once the Athlete Age Exemption Request and Waiver has been submitted, the request will be reviewed by the League committee.
The Community League games are a shortened version of a regular water polo game, where the time per quarter, number of players, and length of the pool have been modified to a smaller degree. This style of play allows for fast-paced gameplay and many games versus multiple teams over a short period of time.
For information regarding CL Game Rules, Player & Team Eligibility, etc... see the Community League Handbook.
