The Kitsilano Beach Water Polo 4s Tournament will return Aug. 5-6th, 2023 from 7am-12pm (Tentative – TBD), at Kitsilano Beach Swimming Pool.
This will be the 6th year that water polo has been a part of KitsFest, and the event has grown with regards to sophistication and participation every year. It started as a series of informal scrimmages in the bay at Kits Beach, then become more structured over the years. Last year, we were able to secure pool time in the iconic Kitsilano Beach Swimming Pool; marking the first time anyone had been granted access to the facility for water polo.
The new venue was paramount for the event. Removing the obstacle of working around the tides made it possible to increase the number of games and open the event up to multiple divisions; with different age groups and skill levels. After 2018 & 2019’s success, Vancouver Parks and Recreation graciously offered to expand our footprint to fit two courts in 2019; which means even more opportunities for expansion.
2018 boasted 8 teams and 3 divisions with around 100 athletes, ranging in age from 12-70+. 2019 registrations were even stronger, with over 10 teams in 4 divisions.
This truly is a one of a kind event that brings together water polo players from all demographics. KitsFest Water Polo is a great opportunity for the local water polo community to showcase our sport and to grow Vancouver’s presence as a water polo hub within the Pacific Northwest, Canada and beyond.
