Olympic Water Polo - Water Polo Equipments

Equipments required in water polo include:
Ball: A water polo ball is constructed of waterproof material to allow it to float on the water. The cover is textured to give players additional grip. The size of the ball is different for men's, women's and junior games.
Caps: A water polo cap is used to protect the players' heads and ears. Caps are fitted with ear protectors.
Goals: Two goals are needed in order to play water polo. These can either be put on the side of the pool, or in the pool using floaters.
Mouthguard: The use of a mouthguard is recommended due to the extreme amount of contact involved with water polo.
Swimwear: Male water polo players wear swim briefs or trunks. Female players must wear a one-piece swimsuit.

Water Polo is a popular sport played around the world, especially in Europe, United States, Canada and Australia. Water Polo debuted at Olympic Games in 1900. Water Polo will be played during 2012 Olympic from Sunday 29th July to Sunday 12th August at Water Polo Arena, Olympic Park.
