PERIODS, TIME FACTORS, SUBSTITUTIONS PERIODS A game shall consist of two twelve minute periods. Teams change ends at the end of each period. If the score is tied at the end of regulation play, one four minute period shall be played. If the score remains tied, a sudden death overtime period of two minutes is played during which time the team that scores first shall be the winner.

Each team is entitled to two time-outs per game plus one additional time-out per overtime. Time-outs are one minute in duration. Time-outs not used during regulation do not carry over into the overtime period. SUBSTITUTIONS Substitutions may be made during time-outs, after a goal is scored, or between periods. BALL IN PLAY, DEAD BALL, OUT-OF-BOUNDS METHOD OF PLAY Each team lines up at opposite ends of the pool at the start of play. Play starts when the official throws the ball into the center of the playing area and both teams propel their innertubes toward the ball. After each score, the ball is put into play by the official, by returning it to the goalie just scored upon. OUT-OF-BOUNDS A free throw-in from the same point the ball went out of bounds is awarded to the opposing team. The player nearest to where the ball goes out of bounds takes the throw. CONDUCT OF PLAYERS INFRACTIONS Infractions are penalized by the loss of possession of the ball to opponent by a free throw-in. Infractions include: • Holding onto the pool wall while in possession of the ball. Rule also applies to the goalkeeper. • Holding the ball under water • Goalkeeper throwing the ball more than half the length of the pool • Goalkeeper holding onto the side of the pool while catching or passing the ball, or pushing off the bottom of the pool while attempting to deflect a try for goal. • Offensive player within the goalkeeper’s area • Offensive player failing to release the ball in five seconds (stalling). • Starting play before the referee blows the whistle • Striking the ball with a clenched fist (goalie exempted). • Sitting in the tube incorrectly (Butt not inside of the tube) After a minor infraction, a non-violating team member nearest the spot of infraction puts the ball into play by passing or advancing the ball. Opponents may not touch, impede, or interfere with one’s attempt to pass the ball. One pass must be made before any attempted goal. PERSONAL FOULS The following fouls are penalized by losing possession of the ball to the other team, whom receive a free throw: • Holding, punching, hitting, jumping on, tackling, dunking, or dumping an opponent not holding the ball. • Punching, hitting, jumping on, tackling, dunking, or dumping an opponent with the ball. • Player persistently repeating an infraction even after the official has given warnings. • Tipping an opponent out of his/her tube immediately after scoring in an attempt to discount the score. • No player may leave his/her innertube and touch or maneuver the ball; otherwise he/she is assessed a personal foul and a free throw or penalty throw is awarded his/her nearest opponent. Also, if tipped out of the tube, a player may not touch or control the ball until he/she is back in the tube. The following situations result in the opposing team being awarded a penalty throw. • Offensive player fouled in the penalty area while controlling the ball and facing the goal. • Offensive player being fouled when the opponent has been called for more than seven team fouls per half. PENALTY THROWS: All players except the goalkeeper must leave the penalty area until the penalty throw is taken. No player may be within 1 yard of the thrower. Should the penalty throw be missed, the ball is a free ball and continues in play. The player taking the penalty throw must line up on the penalty line. The whistle will be blown 2 times; the first time the player throwing the ball must raise their arm with the ball in it and the second time the ball must be thrown with no hesitation and no faking allowed, otherwise the penalty throw is lost. As mentioned all players except the goalie must be outside the penalty line and at least 1 yard away from the person taking the penalty throw. FACE OFF: This occurs in the case of a double foul or a tie ball. The two players involved sit in their innertubes, with their backs toward each other, about 3 feet apart and everyone else at least 2 yards away. The ball is dropped between the 2 players and is in play as soon as it touches the water. If in a face off, both players line up along the wall, neither player may touch the wall. ADDITIONAL RULE – SAFETY: Blind shots or passes are not allowed (there are no behind the head or behind the back shots or passes) NO EYE GLASSES WILL BE ALLOWED IN THE POOL! SCORING POINT VALUE • A goal scored by any player shall count as one point. • The last offensive person to touch the ball shall be credited with the score. • A goal is scored when the entire ball has passed over the goal line between the goalpost and under the cross bar. EJECTIONS A player is disqualified on his/her 3rd personal foul. .

  • Canoe Polo About the Game
    CANOE POLO ABOUT THE GAME INTRODUCTION Five players per team play a game similar to water polo, with a few minor alterations. Each of the 5-aside team, (plus subs) are in kayaks, and the goals are suspended in the air. Canoe polo is similar to basketball in that it is based on possession, passing, blocking, and scoring, though with the addition of tackling under tightly prescribed rules. A team game for all ages where skills will dominate strength, that is extremely safe due to protective equipment, the indoor pool environment, and close adult supervision. GEAR One kayak, one double-bladed paddle, one helmet with facemask, a spray deck and a buoyancy vest. (All provided by WCPA) SOME OF THE RULES NUMBER OF PLAYERS Each team may consist of a maximum of eight (8) players for any one game. No more than five (5) players are permitted on the playing area at any one time. Any other players at that moment are to be considered as substitutes. A team must begin each game with five (5) players, ready to start on or behind their own goal line. If a team is reduced to two (2) ​ ​ players at any time the referee shall end the game. PLAYING TIME Playing time shall be two (2) periods each of eight (8) - ten (10) minutes. The half time interval will be two (2) minutes. The teams shall change ends at half time. START OF GAME At the beginning of each game, five (5) players will line up ready to start, stationary and with some part of their kayaks on or behind their own goal line.

  • Water Polo for Players and Teachers of Aquatics
    1 WATER POLO FOR PLAYERS & TEACHERS OF AQUATICS Pete Snyder, Ph. D. Professor, Fullerton College, Fullerton, California Layout Design: Mary Jo Reutter ©2008, updated 2017. All rights reserved. This manual may not, in whole or in part, be copied, photocopied, reproduced, translated, or converted to any electronic or machine readable form without prior written consent of the author. It is Web-pub- lished by the LA84 Foundation under a license from the author. Printed in the USA 2 Acknowledgements This book would not have been completed and had its particular attention to detail without the help and support of the following individuals. First I’d like to thank Mr. Lundy Smith, an English teacher and head Girls Water Polo Coach at Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire. Lundy was most helpful in points of emphasis and grammatical structure in the book. I’d also like to thank Roger Nekton from Phillips Exeter. Roger just retired as head boys water polo and swimming coach after a long and very distinguished career of over thirty years at the Academy. Roger provided valuable technical input as well as encouragement regarding the need for written material in the sport of water polo. As a picture is worth a thousand words, I’m very indebted to Mrs. Chris Kittredge of CMK Enterprises (www.tudorgraphics.com). Chris was able to capture some of the more difficult team aspects of the game only because of her dedication, extensive knowledge of over twenty years with the sport and her brilliance as a photographer. Matt Brown (www.mattbrownphoto.com) is another photographer who exhibited a tremendous amount of alacrity in his water polo photos.

  • Hockey Substitute Goalkeeper Guidelines
    RETURN TO HOCKEY SUBSTITUTE GOALKEEPER GUIDELINES As a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Teams are not able to access affiliate players during the 2020-2021 season. The following guidelines have been established to provide direction to teams on how to manage a situation when their registered goalie(s) are unavailable. Within the Divisions of Senior and Junior, as well as the AAA and AA categories of U18, U16, U15 and U13 the following process(es) will be in place: • When a team only has one goaltender available for a scheduled League game and is seeking access to a back-up goaltender: 1. Teams should consult with each other to determine whether or not the opposing Team will have a properly registered back-up goaltender available. If so, that goaltender should be used as a Substitute should either Team’s goaltender become injured or ill; or 2. If each Team only has 1 properly registered goaltender available for a game, Teams have the ability to apply for access to a Substitute Goalkeeper through the normal application process outlined within the Regulations. ▪ Only one Substitute Goaltender will be considered for a pair/ group of Teams within a ‘Competition Cohort’; ▪ If approved, the Team(s) must ensure that all protocols for using a Substitute Goalkeeper (as outlined below) are adhered to; 3. Or, If an eligible Substitute Goalkeeper is not able to be found or approved, and a goaltender becomes injured or ill, Teams have the ability to dress a player or play the remainder of the game with 6 skaters (as per the Hockey Canada Playing Rules).

  • FINA Water Polo Rules 2013 – 2017 Amendments, Additions, Interpretations and Explanations Effective As of 18 September 2013
    FINA Water Polo Rules 2013 – 2017 Amendments, Additions, Interpretations and Explanations Effective as of 18 September 2013 Please find below an overview of the changes and explanation in regards to the application and interpretation of the “New” Rules plus some applications and interpretations of the “old or existing” Rules. For the most part, changes are highlighted in blue, with clarifications and notes red. These rule changes have the intent of producing more movement, creativity and explosive speed in the game. Furthermore we hope that these rule changes will also assist in removing static situations and providing more clarity for the correct application of the rules. There are only really a few new rules as such as number of timeouts, no extra time but direct to penalty shoot out, players (2 goalkeepers) and no reseting of possession clock on a double exclusion. All other changes are simply to reinforce the interpretation of the FINA Water Polo Rules 2009 – 2013. By making current interpretations now part of the actual written rules, FINA and USAWP want to give referees no other option than to make the desired calls. Also attached are the Appendices again with changes highlited in blue: - Appendix A Instructions for the Use of Two Referees - Appendix B Signals to be Used by Officials WP 5.1 Each team shall consist of a maximum of thirteen players: eleven field players and two goalkeepers. A team shall start the game with not more than seven players, one of whom shall be the goalkeeper and who shall wear the goalkeeper’s cap. Five reserves may be used as substitutes and one reserve goalkeeper who may be used only as a substitute goalkeeper.
