INTRODUCTION
Water Polo is a sport played in the 1st and 4th term and has a proud history at Parktown Boys' High School with Old Boys that have played at provincial and national level. Parktown Boys' High School takes part in many national tournaments across the age groups which give the boys an opportunity to tour and meet boys from other provinces. Parktown Boys' High School also hosts the national Under 15 tournament called "Indigo". It is an annual tournament that hosts all the top schools from all over the country for four days of fiercely contested water polo. Previous winners have been St. John's College, King Edward VII School, Pretoria Boys' High School, St. Stithian's College, Rondebosch Boys' High School, South African College High School and Clifton School.
