WATER POLO

• Teams are composed of about 12 players,
  depending on rules of the league. Seven players
  are in the pool at a time, which includes one
  goalie and six field players. Each field player
  plays both offense and defense, and the goalie is
  not allowed on the other half of the pool. There
  are many different arrangements of players in
  front of the goal (which may be attached to the
  pool deck or free floating on lane lines). The
  location of the players depends on the play that
  is being run, similar to basketball or hockey.
• In scoring, one point is given for each time the
  ball is thrown into the goal, and in some leagues
  there is a 2-point line several meters out of the
  goal. Each quarter begins with a sprint in which
  the fastest members of each team race toward the
  ball, which is placed at the halfway point on the
  water by the referee.

• Why is Water Exercise good?
• The soothing warmth and buoyancy of warm water
  make it a safe, ideal environment for relieving
  arthritis pain and stiffness.
  
• Immersing in warm water raises your body
  temperature, causing your blood vessels to dilate
  and increasing circulation.
  
• Water exercise is a gentle way to exercise joints
  and muscles.
  
• Water supports joints to encourage free movement,
  and may also act as resistance to help build
  muscle strength.
