Show Notes
South Africa Water Polo (SAWP) refutes claims of pressuring athletes to skip Swimming South Africa (SSA) teams and events, emphasizing their commitment to choice and fair play. The dispute arises from last years breakaway due to SSAs administrative issues, with SAWP now boasting over 2,000 members. Athletes and regions are switching to SAWPs pathways, citing better preparation and standards. SSAs team selections have been criticized for delays and revisions, potentially impacting international performance. SAWPs policy for events like the EU Nations Cup favors committed members, leading to a grassroots shift in water polo dynamics in South Africa.
