Water polo for children in Belgrade
Water polo clubs that publish a children’s school, and whether a child has to swim first. Everything here is from each provider's own page, with the date we read it. No prices, no timetables.

Not one of these six states a language of instruction on its own site, so there is no column for it. What that means, and what to ask instead.
We do not publish prices, timetables or term dates for any of these, even where the provider publishes them. They change every term, and an out-of-date class time is worse than none at all. Every row links to the provider's own page, which is where the current schedule lives.
What this page does not tell you
Three things, deliberately. What it costs — the same rule the rest of this guide follows, and for the same reason: a price we copied in September is a wrong price by spring. When the classes are — timetables are rebuilt every term. Whether there is a place free — only the provider knows, and only today.
What we can tell you is that the provider exists, that they say they teach children, what ages they say they take, and where. That is the part that stays true long enough to be worth writing down.
Questions families ask
Does my child need to swim before starting water polo?
Not everywhere. VK Taš and BVK Radnički both take non-swimmers and teach swimming first, and ŽVK Crvena zvezda starts girls by getting them used to the water. Vaterpolo akademija Partizan says its water polo school begins once a child has mastered the water, and Swim Way that children reach ball work after the four basic strokes. At most clubs the swimming school is the way in rather than a barrier.
How young do they take children?
BVK Radnički and ŽVK Crvena zvezda publish five. Swim Way and Aqua Termal publish seven to twelve for the water polo group. Two clubs enrol by year of birth rather than by age, which is how Serbian clubs usually word it, and we record it that way.
Is there water polo for girls?
ŽVK Crvena zvezda is a girls’ club and enrols girls from five. BVK Radnički says boys and girls. VK Taš says its non-swimmer training takes boys and girls but words the water polo school itself as being for boys.
