Extractions: Swimming (19-27 Sept) For the first time in Olympic history, all the aquatics events - swimming, water polo, synchronised swimming and diving - will take place at a single venue. The Olympic Aquatic Centre at the Athens Olympic Sports Complex in Maroussi has been among the most controversial venues. Progress on its construction has fallen way behind schedule. Organisers finally decided in March to scrap a planned plastic-coated tarpaulin roof over the main pool, leaving swimmers exposed to searing August temperatures.

Extractions: Australia grabbed a last minute life line to scrape into the men's water polo quarter-finals on Wednesday after achieving a 7-7 draw with reigning Olympic champions Spain. Sean Boyd fired the equaliser a minute and 50 seconds from full-time to put the Sharks into the last eight as lowliest qualifier. The host nation's tenacity in counter attacking the more skilful Spaniards made for an encouraging finale to its preliminary campaign, but it now faces the daunting prospect of a sudden death play-off against unbeaten Yugoslavia to qualify for the medal rounds. In five major internationals during the past two years Australia have never been closer than a goal to the Europeans and have not managed to beat any of this tournament's other seven quarter-finalists in the past week. A solitary victory over international minnow Slovakia and an 11-all draw with drop-out Kazakhstan earned the home team its only points other than Wednesday night's tie.

Extractions: There is little documentation as to the origins of water polo. However, we do know that the term "polo" is the English pronunciation of the Indian word "pulu," meaning ball. Just as the ball game played on horseback became known as "polo," the ball game played in water became known as "water polo," although there in no connection between the two sports. The game that evolved into modern water polo began as a form of rugby football played in rivers and lakes with the object to "carry" the ball to the opponent's side. By 1869, an Indian rubber ball began replacing the original ball which was made from a pig's stomach. One year later, the London Swimming Club developed rules for football to be played in swimming pools. The first official game was played in the Crystal Palace Plunge in London. The early games were generally exhibitions of brute strength. Passing, punting and dribbling were scarcely ever practiced. Each player considered it his duty to score goals without regard to position. A goal was scored by placing the ball, with two hands, on the top of the tank end. A favorite trick of the players was to place the five- to nine-inch ball inside their swimming suit and dive under the murky water, then appear again as near the goal as possible. Should the player come up too near the goal, he was promptly jumped on by the goalie, who was permitted to stand on the pool deck.

Extractions: Water Polo First Olympic Appearance: 1900 by John Gettings Although it looks a lot like a waterlogged version of soccer for your hands, the sport's history owes more to the game of rugby. Created by resort owners in England in the mid-1800s, the sport's brutal beginnings in the rivers and lakes of the U.K. were tamed by rule changes by the end of the century, causing its popularity to soar. Although men's water polo has the distinction of being the first team sport added to the Olympics and has been a part of every Summer Games since , women's water polo made its first appearance in 2000. The game's rules and strategy for men and women are very similar to those of soccer. Here are some interesting exceptions:
