MAKING WAVES - BWPL AND SWIM ENGLAND'S DRIVE FOR FEMALE WATER POLO REFEREES
BWPL, in collaboration with Swim England, is proud to launch "Making Waves", a new initiative aimed at increasing female participation in water polo refereeing. With comparable male and female participation in the sport, it’s time our refereeing community reflected that balance.
The “Making Waves” programme will focus on topics relevant to female referees’ development; provide a space to discuss barriers to recruitment, progression, and retention; and generate resources to support future female referees.
"Making Waves" will benefit current referees, build a supportive environment for new recruits and inspire female players to draw on their knowledge of the game and take up the whistle.
