Athlete Carding
Athlete Carding
​
Targeted athletes are nominated by Water Polo West based on the athlete criteria below. Any enquiries regarding the sport-specific selection criteria can be made to teambc@waterpolowest.ca. As a general principle, all athletes are expected to demonstrate evidence of their ongoing performance progression and tracking toward Water Polo West high-performance program benchmarks to remain targeted.
​​
The nomination cycling for Water Polo West is December 1st to November 30th. With this in mind, Water Polo West submits a list of nominated athletes in November each year for athletes who meet the criteria for the previous Water Polo season. The next step is that CSI-Pacific will email athletes (or guardians) with an invitation to register for CSI benefits.
