Water polo is a team water sport. A team
consists of six field players and one
goalkeeper. The winner of the game is the
team that scores more goals. Game play
involves swimming, players passing the ball
while being defended by opponents, and
scoring by throwing into a net defended by a
goalie. As such, water polo has similarities to
association football (soccer) and netball.
