- Water_polo abstract "Water polo is a team water sport. The game consists of 4 quarters (or periods) in which the two teams attempt to score goals by throwing the ball into their opposition's goal, with the team that scores the most goals winning the game. A team consists of 6 field players and one goalkeeper in the water at any one time. In addition to this, teams may have substitute players (up to six under most governing bodies), including up to one substitute goalkeeper. Water polo is a very violent and aggressive sport, meaning that minor fouls occur frequently and exclusion fouls (in which a player is suspended from the game for 20 seconds) are also common. It is played in an all-deep pool (usually at least 1.8m deep) meaning that players need considerable stamina and endurance to play the game. Players use a type of water treading called eggbeater.Some specialist equipment is needed for water polo such as a water polo ball, a ball which floats on the water made from nylon; water polo caps and water polo goals, which are either floating goals or wall-mounted goals which attach to the side of the swimming pool.In its simplest form, the game consists of swimming (with and without the ball, sometimes with water polo specific strokes), treading water (using a specific technique called the eggbeater kick or simply eggbeater), throwing and catching the ball and shooting using a single hand. Unlike many other team sports, such as association football, players do not tend to be only an offensive or defensive player, but rather play as either of these positions depending on where the ball is.The game is thought to have originated in Scotland in the late 19th century as a sort of "water rugby". William Wilson is thought to have developed the game during a similar period. The game thus developed with the formation of the London Water Polo League and has since expanded, becoming widely popular in various places around the world, notably mainland Europe and the United States of America.".
