Confused by all the whistles during a water polo game? In this video we explain what they mean. This video is great for beginning or intermediate players as well as water polo parents and spectators to learn the basic rules of the sport. The following concepts are discussed: getting live, putting the ball into play and foul and drop.

You're welcome, thanks for the feedback. The other videos in this series should be equally as useful before your first match or even after. Check those out and good luck!

*Keep in mind, new rules state that if the player "plays" the ball, they are aloud to attack again

@ShaquaticsNet 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, that’s correct, if the offensive player puts the ball into play, the defense can attack and guard again as usual.

Can you up date this one and have the two meter player facing the incoming ball? Thanks.

Question, after you draw the foul at 5 meter, after 3 seconds have passed, can you go up and press again? I've been ejected twice during a game after waiting for a total 5 seconds rather than the normal 3.

@Yung Lean I think if the person plays the ball then u can go and press them but if it's been more than 3 seconds it should be a turn over

I got an ejection for jumping on the guy who had a 5 meter free throw, and I thought the signals for the ejection meant that they exchanged me from the team for a sophomore, so I tried to get out of the pool. ;(

when you get fouled outside the 5m line can you pass instead of taking a shot?

@ShaquaticsNet 10 жыл бұрын

Yes, you can. You can either take the quick shot, or you have your free throw just like after a regular foul. You could even pump fake the goalie because he doesn't know whether you are taking the shot or using the free throw. But once you did your pump fake, you wouldn't be able to shoot it, it would have to be a pass from that point.

@eilidhmcguire836 5 жыл бұрын

i play waterpolo and some of this is incorrect. if someone fouls you outside five metres you are allowed to shoot . the thing about being “live” is just madeup as ive never heard or used that

@ShaquaticsNet 5 жыл бұрын

We talk about the 5 Meter Rule at the end of the video. If someone fouls you outside of 5 Meters you can shoot the ball if you do it in one motion and without a delay. Inside 5 Meters, however, if you get fouled you cannot shoot the ball.

@gagolub 10 ай бұрын

This is outdated. Please update with current rules. You have to pop the ball to get live or pass quickly. And now it’s an outside the 6m for direct shot, not 5m

We have a playlist called New Rules 2020, which covers all the rule changes from kzfaq.info/sun/PLiz5_CgAU4m2bHWqkqdxfzir84PzZO8U0 You are correct, the getting live and 5m has changed but everything else is still valid.
