Swimming Club - Water Polo Team


                STORM WATER POLO TEAM

Welcome to the City of Hialeah’s Storm Water Polo team. Water polo is a team water sport requiring an ability to swim. Combining some elements of swimming, handball, soccer, basketball, ice hockey and wrestling. A team consists of six field players and one goalkeeper. The objective of the game is to score as many goals as possible, with each goal being worth one point. Water Polo is one of the toughest sports on the planet. Field players must swim end to end of a 30-meter pool non-stop many times during a game. The front crawl stroke used in water polo differs from the usual swimming style in that water polo players swim with the head out of water at all times to observe the field. Backstroke is used by defending field players to track advancing attackers and by the goalkeeper to track the ball after passing. Water polo backstroke differs from swimming backstroke; the player sits almost upright in the water, using eggbeater leg motions with short arm strokes to the side instead of long straight arm strokes. This allows the player to see the play and quickly switch positions. Ball handling skills: As all field players are only allowed to touch the ball with one hand at a time, they must develop the ability to catch and throw the ball with either hand and also the ability to catch a ball from any direction, including across the body using the momentum of the incoming ball. Seven players from each team (six field players and a goalkeeper) are allowed in the playing area of the pool during game play. Visiting team field players wear numbered white caps, and home team field players wear dark caps; both goalies wear quartered red caps, numbered "1". Both teams may substitute players. During game play, players enter and exit in front of their team bench; when play is stopped, they may enter or exit anywhere. The game is divided into four periods; the length depends on the level of play.
