HaBaWaBa International Festival PLUS

The HaBaWaBa experience continues

Why don’t keep spreading the HaBaWaBa values to older kids, giving them the chance to live again the HaBaWaBa atmosphere?

The 9th edition of HaBaWaBa International Festival PLUS, dedicated to U13 teams (with separated boys’ and girls’ tournaments), is scheduled for June, 2025, from 22nd to 29th.

Registration will open on October 15th: REGISTER YOUR TEAM!

About HaBaWaBa PLUS

In 2016 Waterpolo Development chose to spread sports values also among older kids. So we started HaBaWaBa International Festival PLUS, an event reserved to Under 13 waterpolo players that differs from HaBaWaBa International Festival also because of the greater importance of the competitive element: due to the same reason, in 2018 (3rd edition) Waterpolo Development doubled the competion, splitting the girls tournament from the boys one.

As the International Festival, HaBaWaBa International Festival PLUS assigns the Fair Play Trophy and has playing-educational workshops. As the Festival, you can follow it through the official HaBaWaBa App.
