CRAB DRILL: Learning to Move Like a Defender Who Knows What’s Up

Yesterday we got stuck into the crab drill — the sideways shuffle that turns beginners into defenders who actually stay goal‑side instead of drifting off like confused seagulls at Nobbys.

The crew worked on:
• Sideways movement — staying square, staying balanced
• Reading attackers — eyes up, hips ready
• Controlling space — moving with purpose, not panic

And when Coach Meg was explaining the body position…
She accidentally broke into the full Erling Haaland walk — that slow, wide‑shouldered, “I’m about to score five goals” strut.

Honestly, the crab drill has never looked more elite.

Progress everywhere. Confidence everywhere. Chaos… also everywhere.

FUNFIT LADIES — SESSION 3 RECAP (Charlestown Pool)

We introduced our Kap7 sniper nets into the kit, and after a few clever tweaks (because our inflatable goals are definitely wider than comp goals), they worked an absolute treat.

More field players meant more subs resting in the corner, and best of all, no goalie injuries - Huge win.

The nets also helped the ladies learn where to shoot more effectively, giving everyone clearer targets and better feedback on placement.

Today’s skill focus was all about defensive movement and smart ball control:
• Crab and glide for defence — moving sideways with purpose, staying goal‑side, and controlling space
• Keep‑away drill in both passing and shooting — building patience, awareness, and quick decision‑making

Another fun, focused morning with an awesome group.

Bring on next week 💦

FunFit Session 3 is up!
Ready to make a splash this Sunday?

Our Charlestown Pool crew is all about fun, fitness, and friendship — no rough stuff, no pressure, just laughs and movement in the water.

Perfect for women aged 16 to 80 and all fitness levels — whether you’re a dolphin or still figuring out your doggy paddle 😅

Plenty of spots still open, so jump in and join the fun!
🕚 11 AM • Sunday 9 Aug • Charlestown Pool

If you’ve ever wondered what peak athleticism looks like… it’s three FunFit legends fighting over a ball like it’s the last hot chip at Charlestown Pool.

There’s splashing, there’s chaos, there’s someone yelling “I GOT IT!” even though they absolutely do not got it — and honestly, it’s why we love this crew.

Every session is full of laughs, questionable teamwork, surprise tackles from your mate who swears it was “accidental”, and that one person who pops up out of the water like a dolphin who’s late for work.

FunFit Water Polo:
Where the cardio is real, the skills are improving, and the comedy is accidental but elite.

💦💙 Stronger together. Funnier together. Floating… mostly together.

FUNFIT WATER POLO — DEFENCE SHAPE

While community water polo runs a mushroom/arc with six in the field and a goalie, we’ve gone full sparkle with our FunFit diamond 💎
Four in the field and one in goal (soon to be four + sniper nets + subs galore!).

We still keep our point/centre back and hole/centre forward, but our wings and drivers have merged into hybrids — multitasking legends who do it all.

Because at FunFit Water Polo, we don’t just defend… we shine under pressure ✨

FUNFIT LADIES — SESSION 2 RECAP (Term 3)

Another beautiful sunny Sunday at Charlestown — so warm that Coach Meg was in a t‑shirt, and our goalie had to rock a hat just to survive the sunshine. Absolute winter magic.

Today’s focus was all about shaping our attack and defence around the goal mouth. We took concepts from competition water polo and adapted them perfectly for our FunFit crew:
• Working from the traditional mushroom (6‑a‑side)
• Transitioning into our FunFit diamond (4‑a‑side)
• Understanding how spacing creates options in attack
• Learning goal‑side positioning in defence
• Reinforcing that we are the first line of defence, and the goalie is the last

The ladies picked it up beautifully — smart movement, better awareness, and growing confidence in reading the play around the cage.

Another sunny, fun, skill‑building Sunday with an awesome group.

Bring on next week 💦
