Blog 103: Water Polo, how a Father’s legacy lives on.

Water Polo is making waves to ensure gender equality with the The Brian Macdonald Campbell Cup. It was first held in 2021 by three brothers to recognise the achievements and impact their father had in Scottish Water Polo. This year, they celebrate their first all-girls tournament that featured teams from across the UK. SW/S sat down with Ali Campbell to get the low-down on the most recent tournament and their plans for the future of the BMC Cup.
