Marsascala, the Club Marsascala has become one of the major water polo
clubs in the Maltese Islands. From a team that languished
in the second division of the national league, it has
progressed to become one of the top five teams on the
island culminating with the winning of the national
league in 1997. Moreover the club has participated in the
European Competitions organized by L.E.N. with
encouraging results including victories over the national
champions of the Czech Republic and Switzerland.
Beginning from the year 2000 the club has embarked on a
four year strategy of renovation of the team roping in
very promising youngsters who are gaining valuable
experience alongside the established players, this with a
plan in mind to win the championship again in a few
years' time. Marsascala the
Town The
seaside town of Marsascala is located around a
picturesque inlet on the southeast coast of Malta. In the
last 20 years it has developed from a small fishing
village into a major tourist and commercial location in
the south of the island. The resident population has
increased ten fold in the last 10 years exceeding 6,000
permanent residents alongside more than the same number
of summer occupants. In the commercial sector the town
offers four large hotels and more than fifty food
establishments. Everyday youths from allover the island
flock to the various recreational centers in the town.
These include a cinema complex, a number of discotheques
and the sports complex of Marsascala Sports Club, which
boasts a newly built clubhouse and a 50m salt-water
swimming pool with its adjoining restaurant and diving
center. Water
polo is the number one sport on the island in the summer
months. It is given extensive coverage by all media. The
daily newspapers give an extensive report of the previous
days matches. Games are also covered by a direct
commentary on local radio stations and are viewed on
television later in the evening. The attendance of
matches varies but may be up to 2000 people for the most
interesting games. The standard of Maltese water polo is
of a good level. This website is a collection of images, history, teams, events, news items and related articles of the water polo team of Marsascala, Malta.
