FASCINATING, TOUGH, LOYAL: WATER POLO

 


Hello everyone, today I want to talk to you about a beautiful sport, which is also my best favourite: water polo.

History tells us that water polo was born in Scotland and is a sport with rules similar to those of football. It is a team game, where the players have to score goals in the opponent's goal. The game consists of four halves and each team has six players and a goalkeeper; all is regulated by a referee. The game is played inside a swimming pool where there are signs which delimit "the penalty area" and the half of the pitch. The match starts on the referee's whistle and the fastest team to catch the ball, located in the middle of the pitch, will have the opportunity to start the action.
