2010 Men's Collegiate Club Participation Contracts Due Today

Participation Contract Form

BRIDGEPORT, Pa. -- Participation contracts for the 2010 Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Men's Collegiate Club season are due today, June 1.  Teams can fill out the form online under the Coaching link and Administrative Forms links of the website.

The form MUST BE COMPLETED BY THE INSTITUTION'S CLUB SPORT SUPERVISOR.  Forms filled out to a team president or player can not be accepted as the CWPA requires all collegiate club teams to complete a Participation Agreement prior to every season. The agreement outlines their obligation to compete in all of their scheduled games in their entirety, avoiding no-contests. No-contests occur when a team fails to show for its scheduled game, causing the following problems:

  • Teams pay for lodging when they could have driven the next day
  • Teams fail to receive the number of games they originally expected
  • Schedules change at the last minute, causing confusion among teams
  • Schedule changes make the program inaccurate, wasting money
  • Hosts pay pool rental fees for unused time
  • Officials are paid for games not played

In addition, teams are reminded to complete the Media Guide Information Form and the Pool Reservation Form if the institution is hosting a CWPA club tournament in the fall.
