Polar Bear Combine 2026
Coronado Aquatics Club
Sunday, August 30, 2026
Coronado's youth water polo fitness challenge and fundraiser. Athletes test strength, speed, agility, swimming, and grit while raising money for Coronado Aquatics Club scholarships.
Three clear ways to support Nado Polo Polar Bear Combine.
Challenge
Age divisions from 5U to 16U+. Every athlete gets a personal score, badge opportunities, and team points.
Team
Sponsor an athlete's challenge and help their fundraising team climb the leaderboard.
Sponsor
Business sponsorships support scholarships and appear on the sponsor wall.
The day feels like a challenge, but every station is built to be fun, safe, and scalable by age group.
Strength
Athletes test upper-body strength in a station that can scale for younger kids.
Water speed
A short swim gives each athlete a clean benchmark for water speed.
Grit
A land-based effort station keeps the day athletic, simple, and spectator-friendly.
Quickness
Quick feet, turns, and change of direction make the combine feel like water polo.
Skill
A water polo station connects the challenge back to the sport.
Finish
The final plunge keeps the tradition, the photos, and the event-day fun.
Athletes can chase a personal best, help their team, and still leave proud even if they are not at the top of the scoreboard.
Every registration, donation, and sponsor helps Coronado kids get access to water polo through Coronado Aquatics Club scholarships, pool time, coaching, and team support.
