About Lake Ridge Water Polo
Headed by Coach Randy Cooper, Lake Ridge Water Polo (LRWP) began by holding pick-up water polo games at local Lake Ridge Parks and Recreation pools. As interest in the sport was recognized, Cooper searched for opportunities to expand the club’s offerings and begin growing a community of water polo players in the eastern Prince William County area. Now, in cooperation with the Lake Ridge Swim Club and Lake Ridge Swim Team, Lake Ridge Water Polo has graduated into a start-up sports club capable of providing water polo opportunities for participants of various ages.
