National/Regional Development Centres (NDC/RDC)

In order to emphasize the growth of the next generation of Canadian athletes, the National/Regional Development Centres (NDCs/RDCs) are a crucial pillar of the Water Polo Canada High Performance development strategy. 

 

Water Polo Canada has implemented a sustainable NDC/RDC development strategy to ensure long-term system alignment. Water Polo Canada will continue to develop NDCs/RDCs and other high-performance initiatives for athletes across the country.

The Manitoba Water Polo Association acknowledges that the work we do takes place on the traditional lands and waterways of the Anishinaabeg, Anishininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Denesuline, and Nehethowuk peoples, as well as the National Homeland of the Red River Métis.

​

As a community, we remain committed to fostering positive and mutually beneficial relationships with Indigenous communities. We also recognize that the privileges and benefits we enjoy as citizens of Canada are rooted in long standing treaties and historical relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Peoples. We are all treaty people and accept our responsibility to honour all relations.​
