Water Polo Basics

Water Polo Basics-- aka "Hey What Just Happened?"

Have you ever sat in the stands of a water polo game and found yourself asking the question, "What the He--ck Just Happened?" Have you been brave enough to ask your parent-buddies in the stands?

Well I have found myself scratching my head and wondering on more than one occasion. My first few experiences as a water polo spectator were filled will far more questions than answers.

Click on the YouTube video below for a brief video guide to water polo.



I found a web site called SportSpectator.com, published by a young man named Bryan Jones. He has web-published some instructional videos on YouTube that I thought many parents would find helpful.

Click on these links below for a short video explanation of :

The Sprint

The Set Offense

Establishing the Hole Position

The Penalty Shot

The 6 on 5 Offense


I found these videos to be instructive. I hope you do too.

So the next time you are sitting in the stands and a newbie fan is scratching his head, maybe you will be the parent with the answers instead of the questions.
