The preparation in the Olympic year is always different to the three long course preparations preceding it. Everyone tries harder.

While this is true, it originated as a far more violent sport with even harder obstacles. The sport’s origins come from northern Europe, specifically the British Isles. Water polo originated as a type of rugby that was played under the water with violence, injuries, and near-drownings as part of the game. The Scots then developed more civilized rules and developed the concept of passing the ball above water while submerging the ball was considered illegal. The sport grew in popularity and spread all across Europe. The Hungarians then took up the sport and developed much of it to the way we play today. They developed the dry pass, meaning that the ball was to never touch the water; this revolutionized the sport and allowed the Hungarians to establish a water polo dynasty. ater polo is one of the oldest Olympic sports. It was included in the 1900 Olympic Games. WOne of the most violent games in history was the 1956 Gold Medal Match between the USSR and Hungary.

It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.
