Club Natació Sant Andreu overhauls women's water polo team

Club Natació Sant Andreu is undergoing a major restructuring of its women's water polo team following budget cuts. The changes have led to a significant roster turnover, with 12 of the 14 players from the previous season departing. Only Noemí Gómez and Robin Jutte have renewed their contracts.

The club has also seen the departure of head coach Javi Aznar, who led the team for 12 seasons and secured five major titles, including a Champions League. To rebuild, the club has recruited several new players, most notably Maica García. García, a highly decorated athlete with multiple Olympic and World Championship medals, joins the club following a controversial exit from Sabadell.

ways the departure from Sabadell was marked by dispute, as García claimed her contract should have been automatically renewed under specific labor regulations following her pregnancy announcement.
