Episode 2: With Theo Nousios

I chat to the organisers and a few attendees of the ManUp! Water Polo Festival in Salford Quays on Sat 7th Aug.

All Wrapped Up, Water Polo podcast chat, sports consultant David Meli joins host Paul Metcalfe to discuss the work he's been doing with Water Polo in conjunction with Swim England.

Firstly, sorry its been so long since my last episode! Sometimes life takes over when trying to organise things! I sat down with Toby King who has recently been appointed chair of the SE Water Polo Leadership Group to discuss his background, where he sees us at the moment and where he sees Water Polo going in the future. Really interesting to hear his opinions on the way forward for our great sport.

I sat down with GB Mens Head Coach Tim Dunsbee to discuss the state of the senior programmes and the way ahead for our national teams.

18 months of hard work reached its end point at the weekend with the Under 17 boys LEN Qualification tournament at the Manchester Aquatics Centre. I sat down with 3 of the team to discuss how they found the programme so far, their thoughts on the tournament and their hopes and desires for the future in our sport.

At the end of an eventful week for Theo Nousios, I travelled up to Manchester to sit down and chat with him about the Manchester men winning the BWPL with 2 games to spare, the ladies top going into the final games and the big story that came out on Friday evening, he had quit as GB Senior ladies head coach.
