Torrey Pines High School Water Polo

1. What is Sunset?
Sunset is the name of the water polo club where Torrey Pines High School team members, and students interested in water polo (both middle school and high school students), play during the off-season. The club is not affiliated with Torrey Pines High School, and there is no requirement to play on this club team if you want to play water polo for Torrey Pines. Sunset is based at the UCSD Canyonview Pool. It includes evening water polo practices 2-3 times per week and Saturday or Sunday tournaments. The Sunset Boy's team also does weight training. The club schedule changes depending on the season of the year.

2. Who should join Sunset?
You do not need to be a member of the TPHS water polo team to join Sunset. If you have an interest in playing water polo at TPHS or LCC, or you're wondering if water polo is the sport for you, try the Sunset Club. You'll meet other players and see why people are so enthusiastic about this game. It's your chance to learn water polo, get your body in condition, and meet new people before school starts. Everyone interested in water polo at TPHS, LCC, University City and Middle School students who are curious about what it takes to play water polo, should join the Sunset Club.
