Eight of the world’s top women’s water polo teams are in Rotterdam for six days of elite competition—and now fans can have their say. At the tournament’s midway point, supporters are invited to vote among 12 standout performances from the opening three days, with one player earning the unofficial title of “MVP of the MVPs” for the group stage.
The Women’s Water Polo World Cup 2026 Division 1 tournament is underway in Rotterdam, Netherlands, bringing together the top eight teams on the planet for six days of high-intensity action and world-class competition.
