About
The seed for what has become one of Australia's great Water Polo Clubs was sown by the merger of teams from Gymea Bay and Cronulla Surf Life Saving Club who in 1963 entered a team in Third Division of the Sydney Metropoltan Competition. The St George Leader reported “.... that Frank Jordan was to convene a meeting at Cronulla Surf Club for the purpose of starting a water polo club in the area. ” The intention was to enable local players to become eligible for selection in New South Wales, Australian and Olympic teams.
On the 20th of July 1970 the Club charged its name to the Cronulla Sutherland Water Polo Club following an invitation by Cronulla Sutherland Leagues Club to become an affiliate of “The Sharks”.
