All right, your enthusiasm has convinced me. I don't know anything about water polo, but I'll look up a game on YouTube. Time to broaden my horizons!
Ah, so it's basically soccer, using hands instead of feet, while swimming. Looks like it would be a fun casual sport to play with friends and family (but in a much smaller pool lol).
As someone who used to play WP, stopped in high school and after 6 years met with some old teammates to play one „casual“ game…twas very exhausting and not much fun
As long as you can stand on the bottom instead of treading, it can be casual & fun. Otherwise you need to be in incredible shape or have gills to have a chance.
I remember there being tube polo as an intramural sport at my university. I never played but it's another option to avoid mostly just drowning the whole time.
Do the horses enjoy it tho
Doubt it. The swim caps mush their ears down.
Wouldnt call it casual...
