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.

  • Water Polo Study Guide
    WATER POLO STUDY GUIDE History: The history of water polo began in the 1870s in England. The game originated as a form of rugby football played in rivers and lakes in England and Scotland with a ball constructed of Indian rubber. Since then, its popularity has grown, as shown by the addition of men’s water polo to the Olympics in 1900 and, more recently, women’s water polo in 2000. Teams: 7 players on a team. Offensive positions: Hole-set: An offensive player who positions himself directly in front of the opponent’s goal to run the offense. Also called: center forward, hole, hole-man, or 2-meter man. Driver: field players who constantly rotate around the perimeter of the offense to find scoring opportunities. They rotate through the following three positions: point, positioned at the tip of the offense farthest from the opponents goal; flat, positioned about 7 meters from the goal line; and wings, positioned near the 2-meter line. Most driving occurs from the point and flat positions; the wings rotate up to the flat as teammates drive their direction. Defensive positions: Hole-guard: A defensive player who guards the hole-set. The hole-guard’s main objective is to prevent the hole-set from scoring, often by purposely committing ordinary fouls. Also called center back. Goalie: Defensive player who guards the goal by blocking the opponent’s shots. The goalie is the only player who can touch the ball with two hands at once. Start of the game: Teams line up at opposite ends of the pool, holding on to the wall.
