News Sport Network managing director Michael Wilkins said the deal with Water Polo Australia would deliver more content from the pool across the country.

Elite athletes will play in the Australian Water Polo League.

“It is exciting to partner with WPA again for another season of action, and this year we are stepping it up a notch.
