Life Members

Life memberships have been awarded to the following for their outstanding commitment and service to Ryde Water Polo Club.  The recipients of these awards have worked tirelessly for the club and the community of water polo.  All have donated 10 years or more to the club in various roles and have been key in ensuring our club has been successful for over 60 years.
