Contact info for Water Polo Water Polo regulations - PDF format Water Polo 2003 5 Nations Junior International Results (PDF format) Dates for the diary Water Polo Inter-District Championships: Water Polo National Leagues Background The First International match between Scotland and England was played in 1890 and although being played under English rules the Scots won. The return match was played the following year in Scotland with the Scots remaining victorious and an International Board was set up to combine the best of both sets of laws to unify the game. Significant changes have been made to the rules since then and the modern player must be extremely fit and strong. The top class matches are played in large, all deep pools, so that even when not involved in play, the players cannot touch the sides or floor of the pool. A team consists of 13 players, with only 7 allowed in the water at any one time and a game is played in four quarters of seven minutes actual playing time, which means a game can last for about an hour. Many European countries have professional players and the championship matches are televised with large crowds of spectators. Scotland has not reached this stage yet, but there are many competitions for all age groups and abilities, with many clubs throughout the country having teams or training near you.

93. Brief Introduction To Water Polo water polo is the oldest team sport in the olympic Games, with the first olympic water polo game taking place in 1900 in Paris. http://users.ox.ac.uk/~wpolo/BriefIntroWP.htm

Water Polo Brief Introduction Tradition Competitive water polo demands intelligence, strength, stamina, skill, and above all, consistent teamwork. The superb quality of Oxford's academics, athletics, and social life provides an ideal environment for water polo excellence. Water polo began in England in the late 19th century, probably as an outgrowth of football (soccer) in the water. Water polo is the oldest team sport in the Olympic Games, with the first Olympic water polo game taking place in 1900 in Paris. THE Varsity match, is an annual game between the ancient Oxford and Cambridge universities, and is the longest running waterpolo fixture in the world. It is currently in its 107th (?) year. Of course, we have seen many rule changes including moving from pigs-bladder balls to plastic luminous yellow, and from no movement of any player after a foul has been blown until it has been taken (penalty = major foul), and the three minors in a row = 1 major rule both having been dropped (Phew !!). Players must continually swim or tread water, make quick bursts for the ball, catch and pass the ball in one hand, and use their lower body to propel themselves above the water to shoot. Water polo combines elements of basketball (teamwork), football (contact), and hockey (shooting). In water polo, there is no such thing as standing still. Even at rest, the players must tread water to stay afloat. Exercise physiologists call it the "most physically demanding of all sports." For an introduction to water polo and its rules, try my information page. This is a spruced up version of the Australian Institute of Sport Water Polo page. In addition, you can monitor ongoing discussions about water polo through the rec.sport.water-polo newsgroup.

Contents Editorial The lighting of the Olympic Flame, 1936 Hellenic Olympic Committee's profile Strict security measures at Salt Lake City ... News The "heavy artillery" of throwing They are the "heavy artillery" of our national athletics team as they are top-notch athletes in throwing. In the past years they were protagonists in great events and stepped up to the winners/ podium repeatedly. And still they feel the need to try and win more, to gain new success and they are getting ready for the 2004 Olympics. We are talking about Mirella Magnani, Tasoula Kelesidou and Kostas Gatsioudis. This year is their last chance to rest before the great rendezvous in 2004. This does not mean that they will not do their best in Munich this summer, since what they have in common is that a European Championship medal is missing from their collection. The Olympic javelin medallist Mirella Magnani says: "The target is always a medal - and a gold one. I haven't stepped up to the podium at a European Championship. So, this event is a major incentive for me. Another fact helps me too: Comparing this year to the previous ones, we don't have to face so many responsibilities or pressure." Tasoula Kelesidou agrees with her. The Olympic champion in discus throwing vows: "I want to get what I have been missing. It's nothing else but a medal at a European Championship. The higher I get the better. But in my sport, things are more difficult, as the top women athletes who are participating are Europeans and there is no difference at all between the Olympic Games, the World Championship and the European Championship."
