Water Polo team secure league title
The senior men’s water polo team have won the Bolton and District League title, securing first place with a comprehensive 17-10 win against City of Chester. Needing a win to guarantee the title, Stretford race into an 8-0 lead meaning the outcome never looked in doubt against an experienced Chester team. The Dolphins only lost one match all season to Bridgefield, who they will meet again in the cup final in the coming weeks. A league and cup double is a possibility.
