The 2025-26 Executive Team
The Triggerfish are a volunteer run, not-for-profit athletics club. Our Executive Team are members elected to coordinate, manage, and run the daily activities of the club. They work with the team’s coaches to arrange activities, both social and competitive.
As volunteers, the Executive Team is always happy to receive the support of club members in contributing back to the club on committees, planning or otherwise.

Polopalooza Coordinator
polopalooza@triggerfishwaterpolo.ca
A personal trainer and competitor; my passion for athletics has encouraged me to compete, explore and travel around the world. In 2021, I joined the Triggerfish - a team that truly embodies inclusion with athletics; that is arguably the largest LGBTQ+ waterpolo team in Canada. It’s been an honour to be a part of the journey. As Polopalooza Coordinator - I am responsible for carrying the torch and traditions of Toronto’s Polopalooza Tournament - scheduled for April 11-13th; 2025. I am thrilled to be a part of the process of creating connections for queer people through the sport of water polo. We look forward to your participation!

Garth Masik (he/him)
Equipment Manager
equipment@triggerfishwaterpolo.ca
As your equipment manager I am responsible for the purchase and maintenance of all the equipment that we use in waterpolo. Occasionally, I will be the person who will take the caps for a good wash and rinse and bring them back all nice and clean for all of you. Swim suits are another task of mine so if you need a swim suit, give me a shout.
