About our Annual Wave-A-Thon

In fall 2020, during our toughest year to date, we announced our newest fundraising initiative to our members called our Wave-A-Thon. The Wave-A-Thon is an event where all of our athletes and coaches swim as many Lengths as they can in a given amount of time, water polo style!

In 2020, Wave athletes and coaches swam over 166,050 meters and raised a record breaking amount of over $25,000! Our Wave-A-Thon has turned into the greatest fundraising event in club history! In 2021, our Wave family crushed our record and swam over 231,225 meters and raised close to $30,000! Wow! We are looking forward to our 2022 goal this year!

Fundraising is an integral part of Capital Wave and helps our overall operating costs, coaching development, and future equipment purchases to name a few. The idea for the Wave-A-Thon grew out of the Covid-19 situation and will sure stay here for the years to come. The club needed a new and safe way to raise the funds we rely on, respecting all of the current health guidelines at the time.

We can’t wait to host our next Wave-A-Thon and if you are interested or know someone who is interested in sponsoring our event or our members, please reach out to our organizing team here: info@capitalwave.ca
