In coordination with FINA, USA Water Polo is also canceling the FINA Intercontinental Tournament slated for later this month in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Division III Collegiate National Championships were canceled due to a lack of available teams electing to host seasons during the first half of 2021 while the FINA competition was canceled due to a lack of travel abilities for water polo nations around the world.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<div class=\"gmail_quote\">\n&#8220;Unfortunately, we&#8217;ve had to cancel these highly anticipated events. With less than 50 percent of the eligible Division III teams understandably deciding not to hold a season this year, we were left with little choice than to cancel both Collegiate National Championships. That said, we are very excited to have our second men&#8217;s event this December and to finally host our first women&#8217;s championship next spring&#8221; said\u00a0<strong><dfn><a href=\"https:\/\/usawaterpolo.org\/staff.aspx?staff=64\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener smarttag noreferrer\" rev=\"64\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/usawaterpolo.org\/staff.aspx?staff%3D64&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1618940138176000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFTQO2vZTiMcX0pe5vMF3y_BNizLQ\">John Abdou<\/a><\/dfn><\/strong>, USA Water Polo Chief High Performance Officer. &#8220;We were also looking forward to partnering with our colleagues at the Indiana Sports Corporation in bringing high-level international water polo to the Hoosier State.
