Dunfermline's Andrew Woodall has been selected for the GB Junior Water
polo team to take part in a tournament which is being held in Sofia, Bulgaria
early in August.
With the change in age groups having just taken place this is the first stage
for this team as they prepare for the European Junior Championships next year.
Only two Scottish players were selected for the team and Andrew follows Club
colleague Alasdair Campbell who gained selection for the previous team and has
now moved on to Senior water polo.
Andrew only took up water polo 2 1/2 years ago having taken the decision to
retire from competitive swimming at 12 yrs old as many others do. As a result of
taking-up water polo he has in fact returned to competitive swimming and is now
also a member of InCAS.
Andrew has improved dramatically over the short period of time that he has been
playing water polo through the Clubs successful Junior development programme and
has also played for the Club at Senior level.
With Water polo a major sport on the continent Andrew is looking forward to an
extremely tough baptism in Bulgaria facing the hosts, Serbia, Austria
&Macedonia.
