“The Kelowna Kraken won their final two games and placed seventh overall in a tough group of nine adult teams, but our youth players put in strong performances against much stronger more experienced opposition,” wrote the club.
A combined team made up of the Pacific Storm Water Polo Club and Surrey Water Polo Club won the U15 title, while the Burnaby Hurricanes were victorious in the adult rec co-ed division.
Numerous spectators stopped to watch the action and former Olympian Marianne White competed in the competition.
