The first edition of the World Cup is a new competition in the world of water polo. The cup is played in two groups with six national teams each, and Croatia got the privilege of hosting one of the groups in Zagreb, against extremely strong and attractive water polo opponents. Five top matches in seven days will be a good prelude for our Barracudas for what awaits them this summer, World Championship.

Our Barracudas, the current European champions, will host France, Hungary, Italy, Japan and the USA. Croatia will open its appearance at the tournament on March 8 with a match against the USA.
The matches will be played at the Mladost swimming pool, and tickets for the tournament will be sold through the ulaznice.hr system.
