Welcome to the 2022 Barbara Kalbus Invitational Tournament Page
Barbara Kalbus
The UC Irvine Invitational was renamed The Barbara Kalbus Invitational in 2017 to honor longtime friend and water polo icon, Dr. Barbara Kalbus.
A 1993 inductee into the USA Water Polo Hall of Fame, Kalbus' impact on the sport was felt across the globe. She served as a longtime manager for the Men's Senior National Team, holding a variety of leadership positions within USA Water Polo since the earliest days of the organization, including the title of President from 1980-1984.
In addition to USA Water Polo she was heavily involved with NCAA Water Polo serving as the Secretary-Rules Editor for more than three decades.
At UC Irvine, she served as the desk manager for both the men’s and women’s teams for over 30 years. Kalbus, who also ran the desk at 10 NCAA Water Polo Championships, was a historian of the game, maintaining extensive archives of international and domestic competition.
In 2010, the Barbara Kalbus Distinguished Volunteer Award was established by USA Water Polo, recognizing those in the sport that have gone above and beyond in volunteer service to the sport.
Kalbus had a nearly 40-year career at Long Beach City College, where she served as a teacher, vice president of academic affairs, then the vice president of administrative services.
