Does anyone here play Water-Polo?

Question

I'm going to go play with my friends but I've never played it before. What tips do you recommend?

Answer 1

You need to make sure you are a strong swimmer.  If you are not, you won;t be able to go for more than a minute.  You need to train by treading watter for long periods.  Then hold a chair over your head and tread water in intervals.  You can practice throwing and catching on land and that will help you as well.

Answer 2

when you have the ball, keep your body inbetween your defender and the ball.

don't be afraid to use your body for an advantage

swim with your head up to see whats happening at all times

when shooting or passing, get your arm up high so you can throw it harder

Answer 3

yeah I play it sometimes... All i would sy to you is have fun. Its not that hard at all. When you get the hang of it you'll no exactly what to do. Have fun :)
