Answer 1

i could sit here all day and night but ill give you a really basic run down...but i think you know basic rules anyway?

- only the goalie can use to hands at one time

- you cannot take the ball underwater if there is an opposing player 1m away from you

- attackin players are not allowed inside the attackin 2m unless they have the ball or the ball is inside as well

- after recieving a foul the player may shoot only if outside the 5 m and it is in one motion

go wiki or talk to people for more detailed rules

now as for your training:

swim like a mother ******. get some fitness from distance swimming then sprint sets with short rest. also laps of leg work is crucial. only after you are tired should you start passing or shooting because in a game you wont be feeling 100% and will be feeling tired. get a coach to show you basic drills.

there is so much more in terms of rules and training but i cbf writing what you may know...good luck

Answer 2

its not easy. u have to learn how to tred water, which is called "egg beating" and u have to just practice swimming such as freestyle, breast stroke, back stroke, etc. u have to kno how to throw the ball while you are eggbeating and since ppl put their hand on ur shoulder and try to push u down in the games, u have to work ur legs out and try to swim away from the other opponent. just watch the games and u will slowly learn
