Nick Dempsey Nick Dempsey is a Sydney University Water Polo player who enjoyed success in the sport throughout his junior and senior playing years. The Albury – born product attended Newington College (Stanmore) and represented Australia in Water Polo, travelling to Turkey to compete at the U18 World Championships in 2014. Recently he has enjoyed playing football back home in the Riverina.
In early 2017 Nick suffered a spinal injury after a pool related accident at his 21st Birthday party. After being airlifted to Alfred Hospital he was classified as a C4 quadriplegic, yet remains remarkably optimistic about his future. As he explained, he didn’t completely sever his spinal cord and thus holds hope to make a substantial recovery.
Currently, Nick is undergoing an intensive rehabilitation scheme, slowly but surely regaining strength and muscle coordination. New technologies such as the FES arm cycle and hydrotherapy have played a positive role in his recovery. Overall however it has been the inspiring support of his friends and family throughout his live changing year that have given him such strength. You can follow Nick in his road to recovery on his Facebook page; Nick’s Journey.
The Australian Spinal Research Foundation Founded in 1977, the Australian Spinal Research Foundation is internationally the largest chiropractic research funding organisation. They have contributed greatly, having funded 183 research projects in 40 years totaling over AUD $2M. The Foundation is registered with the Australian Tax Office and is recognised as an approved Deductible Gift Recipient for tax deductible donations made by Australian residents. More recently the Foundation has become recognized through the CAF America system for USA based residents to make tax deductible donations.
In 2010 the Foundation signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Hamblin Chiropractic Research Fund Trust (NZ) to work together in funding chiropractic research. Their role within the profession is to remain at the leader in facilitating the investigation of how chiropractic contributes to community health and well-‐being, and therefore our mission is “to facilitate research that furthers the understanding and development of chiropractic care”

On the Day Currently our hosts Knox Grammar School are undergoing construction near the pool and as a result it will be extremely difficult to find a good parking spot in Wahroonga. It is highly recommended that you park in the neighbouring suburb Warrawee, potentially in Borambil Street or near Warrawee Train Station. From there you will be able to enter the school through the Borambil gate and have a short walk along the driveway to the pool.
Just a heads up!
Support our Feline Friends! = UTS Balmain Water Polo Club plans to host their 12 years and Under Water Polo Carnival on Wednesday 6th – Friday 8th January 2018. For more details on this fantastic carnival, contact Ann-‐Marie. Email: [email protected] Mobile: 0414 864 008
