CWPA Releases 2009 Men's Collegiate Club Conference Call Schedule

BRIDGEPORT, Pa. -- Each year the CWPA conducts conference calls for every division throughout the country. These calls serve several purposes:

• They establish the schedule for the upcoming season
• They discuss policies
• They provide an opportunity to voice any concerns and share ideas

As always, in order to accurately determine the schedule, teams should know the following facts BEFORE the call AND bring this information with them:

1. Conflicts that would prevent your team from competing (i.e. fall break, spring break, exams, etc.)
2. Dates your pool is available to host a home tournament (if you desire).

The schedule for the calls is posted on the Membership page of the website. Remember that all times indicated are Eastern Standard Time so adjust accordingly for your time zone. To enter the call, simply dial the number listed and enter the passcode when requested.

Every institution should have a representative on the call. Please RSVP to commissioner@collegiatewaterpolo.org with the name of the individual that will represent your institution. We welcome any new teams interested in joining to participate, however they may not vote.
