|
The Lakeside Viking Water Polo Club is a Co-ed sport for high school and Henderson middle school students. The Viking Club was started in 2010, founded by the parents of Lakeside High School. The Club's long term goal is to grow the sport across the state and to establish a school sponsored Varsity Water Polo sport at Lakeside. |
Head Coach, Kevin Hughes has been with the team for 4 years, having served as the Viking Assistant Coach for a year. Kevin played water polo while in high school for St. Pius X and GAC. He attended The Univeristy of Georgia and played for the Bulldogs' Club team all four years. Kevin currently plays on the Dynamo Masters team and has for 11 years.. Kevin enjoys promoting the sport of Water Polo and, as a native Atlantan, advocates to grow the sport state-wide. We are thrilled to have Kevin as our Head Coach!
