BWPL on Sky Sports
Sky Sports will be screening a one hour “Match of the Day”-style highlights programme on five occasions. Provisional dates:
• 5 March Sky Sports 2 18.00
• 5 March Sky Sports 2 21.00
• 6 March Sky Sports 4 00.30

BWPL chairman David Andrews said: “This initiative is something we believed was essential to give our sport far more exposure – and to demonstrate what a great spectacle water polo provides.
“What must be stressed is that the whole project has been self-funded by BWPL thanks to sponsorship and the very generous support of friends of the league. Bringing it to fruition is a huge coup for BWPL – and what better timing than in the year of the Olympics.”
