Boys2Men Beach Water Polo - The Beginning
Title: "Boys2Men Water Polo Day: A Dive into Growth and Team Spirit"
Date: January 13, 2024
I'm thrilled to share the remarkable day we experienced at Boys2Men Water Polo on January 13, 2024. Picture a great beach day, 44 enthusiastic kids, and an abundance of positive vibes.
Our kick-off at 10 am included a brief chat and prayer led by Simon. Prioritizing safety, we incorporated straightforward water tips – simple yet crucial.
Next we played beach baseball, but with a twist. We turned it into a constructive assessment, grading the kids based on their water skills from "Learn to Swim" to the "A Team." It wasn't just a game; it was an individual journey for each participant.
A quick note: we identified a need for better base anchoring – a valuable lesson for our next event!
After a well-deserved snack break, we facilitated team selection for four engaging games. Laughter, healthy competition, and, most importantly, team bonding were the key take-aways.
Lunch, generously provided by Emil Kalinowski, fueled us for the next leg of our adventure.
The awards ceremony was a highlight, with prizes for the winning team and a special acknowledgment for Kaniel, our Player of the Game. It goes beyond the victory; it's about recognizing effort, growth, and the connections formed.
A big shoutout to Karen and Leo for their set-up and cleanup efforts and Jake and Ben for their Lifeguarding duties – teamwork at its finest! Gratitude to Tasha, Simon, Christopher and Seaford for being the backbone of this phenomenal day.
An article on the day was featured in the Cayman Compass. We're not just discussing a day of fun; we're talking about the future of water polo right here on the island.
The Boys2Men Water Polo Day left an enduring impact and believe me, we've just scratched the surface.
Dive in, everyone.
