  1. It was invented in the mid-19th century in England as an aquatic version of rugby.


  2. The exact origin of polo, the oldest team sport, is unknown. Polo was probably first played by nomadic warriors over two thousand years ago.

    Used for training cavalry, the game was played from Constantinople to Japan in the Middle Ages. Tamerlane's polo grounds can still be seen in Samarkand.

    The first recorded polo tournament was in 600 BC when the Turkomans beat the Persians in a public match.

  3. first tell me is it water polo or the one played on a horse back

  4. Water Polo, as it is now, was invented by Scots in the late-19th century. It was origionaly used as a technique by a Polo coach. it was played on barrels floating in the water, like floating horses. then it became an extreamly violent sport, where people would get the ball by hold their defender under water untill they were unconcious.. haha. the game was mostly played under water with a partially deflated leather ball that they would have to swim to the goal with and touch it to the goal. it slowly evolved to what it is today...
