Frequently Asked Questions

Water Polo Development Lab serves youth water polo players, primarily 12U and 14U, in Carlsbad and surrounding North County San Diego communities. The program is designed for athletes who want focused development beyond what regular club practice provides.

Our primary focus is 12U and 14U players. If your athlete falls outside this range, reach out directly and we can discuss whether the program is a good fit.

Yes. Private sessions provide one-on-one coaching for targeted development. Group sessions (3 athletes max) create game-like pressure and competition. Both formats deliver high-quality, individualized coaching.

Sessions are held at pools in the Carlsbad area. Specific location details are provided when you book. Note that the pool is unheated, so a wetsuit (3/2 or 4/3) is required.

Players should bring a wetsuit (3/2 or 4/3 recommended), goggles, a water polo cap if they have one, a water bottle, and a towel. All training equipment is provided.

We understand schedules change. Contact Coach Ramiro at least 24 hours before your session to reschedule. Same-day cancellations cannot be refunded.

Payments are processed securely through Stripe at the time of booking. You can pay per session or book a full cycle. All major credit and debit cards are accepted.

The program works for players at all levels. Coach Ramiro tailors each session to the individual athlete. Whether your kid is just starting out or preparing for high school tryouts, the coaching adjusts to meet them where they are.
