From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stevie Camilleri is a Maltese water polo player who currently plays for Neptunes WPSC

Camilleri has been playing regularly with the Neptunes WPSC first team since he was 16 years old. At international level, he also stood out for Malta several times most notably in July 2007, finishing in the 3rd position of the top-scorers list of the European 'B' championships held in Manchester. He also won the award of best Maltese First Division player. He can play in every position but he is best when playing at the 4m position because he has a deadly shot and can feed his team mates well since he is a player with great vision. He also had some great games in 2006 when he managed to score two goals in a game although being marked by three times world best player Tibor Benedek

In winter 2007/2008 he went on a 6 month loan deal to Serbian giants VK Partizan with the recomendation of Vladimir Vujasinovic. After the 6 month loan he improved tremondously and he impressed all the VK Partizan staff but unfortuneatley due to the limit of foreign players in the Serbian league, the club couldn't hold on to this young protege. In winter 2008/2009 he will be joining Italian club Rari Nantes Bogliasco. Vladimir Vujasinovic again recomended Stevie to Rari Nantes Bogliasco and the team also were in touch with Neptunes WPSC coach Sergio Afric to get more detailed information about Stevie
