Welcome to the 2025/2026 Ireland Water Polo Season.
The National Water Polo Committee is delighted to announce that the 2025/2026 season fixtures have now been finalised and are available to view on the Ireland Water Polo Website and App.
Creating a fixture list is a challenging task with multiple teams and age groups requiring pool time across the country. The NWPC are very conscious of the challenges clubs face and in building the fixture list every effort has been made to avoid clashes, important dates and minimise the amount of travel over the season. As always, as we get towards the later half of the season the list is subject to slight changes as league and cup progress becomes clear.
Attached is the formats of the league and cup competitions for the coming season.
