Amsterdam Waterproof organised a beach water polo tournament in celebration of Sport Pride Amsterdam 2025!
The event, which was organised in cooperation with the Sport Pride Foundation, took place on Wednesday 30 July 2025 at the Watersportcentrum Sloterplas, and consisted of 5 teams facing each other in a mini-tournament. In addition to players from Waterproof, two other Amsterdam water polo clubs joined the fun: Mokum and Jaws.
Two players of the Dutch national teams (Laura Aarts, goalie of the Dutch national women’s team, and Jelto Spijker, goalie of the Dutch national men’s team) were there to coach the players. Participants even had the opportunity to shoot penalties against them!
Team Mokum won the gold: Congratulations! The medal ceremony was followed by drinks and snacks to close this beautiful event with a celebratory note.
