I want to do waterpolo, but?

Question

Hey, thanks for your time.

I want to do Water Polo for my school, but due to the budget cuts there would be no JV in our school and it will be very little chance to get in.... over the summer, i want to get in extreme shape and have a good tan with a growth of confidence. I tend to get lazy working out on land and bored... and swimming is what i need... the fast-twitch fibres, the workout, the water (I'm a martial artist)

Are there any summer programs you'd recommend that train out in the sun, similar to school? It can be water polo, swimming, w.e as long as it's in a pool under the sun. Thanks =].

Oh and one more question, do you have to shave your legs in athletics like these? If not, would you recommend it for any specific reasons? Thank you.

Answer 1

i know there are outdoor waterpolo teams, but i dont know where or how you get on them. search the internet :]. but as for swimming teams, there is a bunch that are outdoors. go in your yellow pages and check to see if there are any outdoor pools close to your home. almost every outdoor pool has a swimming team, and they usually let anyone join.

as for shaving, in swimming you should shave to help you go faster in the water. if you choose not to, it could slow you down because all that fur will add resistance in the water.
