The Victorian Tigers (formerly known as the Richmond Tigers and the Hawthorn Tigers) are a water polo team competing in the Australian National Water Polo League. Their success came mostly in the early years of the National League, which they dominated, winning the first four championships. They won the competition in 2010 with a victory over the Drummoyne Devils, 10–8.

They play most of their games at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre, with a few games at the Hawthorn Aquatic and Leisure centre. The head coach is currently Jeff Barrow (Men) and Dalibor Maslan (Women).
