World Aquatics has appointed a stabilisation committee to oversee South Africa's participation in the 2027 Water Polo World Cup Division 2. The country's fractured water polo administration is the subject of this intervention, with South African Water Polo (SAWP) assisting in the selection, preparation, and management of the national teams under the committee's supervision.
The decision comes after South Africa initially faced the prospect of not having representation at the international competition, which could impact their qualification for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games.
