OUR VISION

This summer, the CSC has launched an exciting new youth water polo program - designed to be fun and welcoming. Water polo is a mix of swimming, basketball, and soccer - played in a pool. Our program will focus on the fundamentals (treading, ball handling, passing, shooting). We hope to establish Cohasset as a hub for youth water polo on the South Shore and help grow one of the fastest-growing water sports in the country.

OUR HEAD COACH

We are incredibly proud to introduce Alyssa Diacono, Head Coach of MIT Men’s Water Polo, as the leader of our inaugural summer program.

Originally from California, Alyssa played collegiately at San Diego State University where she served as a two-year captain and earned Association of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches (ACWPC) Honorable Mention All-American honors in both 2015 and 2016.

During her standout career, she helped lead the Aztecs to four consecutive GCC regular season titles and an NCAA Tournament appearance in 2016. Alyssa was also named SDSU Female Student-Athlete of the Year and was nominated for the NCAA Woman of the Year Award in 2017.

Following college, she played professionally for The University of Western Australia Women’s Water Polo Team and the Exiles Sports Club in Malta.

Alyssa’s passion is helping grow water polo on the East Coast the same way it thrives in California. When we connected with her about launching a program in Cohasset, it immediately felt like a perfect fit!
