The Australian women’s water polo team, the Stingers, and the men’s team, the Sharks, have both advanced to the semifinals of the World Cup. The teams secured their spots following successful performances in the quarterfinal rounds of the tournament.
This achievement marks a significant moment for the program, as both squads look to contend for the championship title. For Stingers captain Bronte Halligan, the current campaign carries personal resonance; she attended the Sydney Olympic Games as a four-year-old to watch Australia defeat the United States, and she now leads the team as they aim to replicate that historic success on the world stage 26 years later.
