New York will host Hungary, Russia, Croatia, Italy and the US. These teams will be battling not only for the money, but also for the honour of their respective countries, factors that very often inspire players to resort to some nasty underwater maneuvering. That's why players have to wear two bathing suits. In earlier years, there were occasions when a player was left in his birthday suit pleading for another bathing suit.

We forget some times because Sam isn't as tall as Andrew Walter. But Sam is all of 6'4 and 235lbs. Sam is a thick guy. He can take a hit. Sam will be good to go for USC."

Extractions: INFORMATION History of Water Polo in Australia As far back as 1876, a Scotsman named William Wilson devised the first rules for a game played between teams in the water. The first games were held in England as a reaction to the public's boredom with the swimming carnivals of the time. The game was later to be known as WATER POLO, although this name is a misnomer, being stolen from a game which preceded it. That game was played atop barrels and truly resembled the sport of polo. Although very rough in the early days until the late 1960s, the game now is an energetic sport which emphasises swimming ability and ball skill over toughness. It is played by both men and women and is the longest-standing team sport in the Olympic Games, being introduced in Paris in 1900. The sport is governed by FINA, the world swimming body, and is played in more than 100 countries. The Sport The sport is the most physically demanding of all team games, requiring top performers to cover up to three kilometres in the pool during the one hour it takes to complete a game. This exertion is quite apart from the physical contact, both above and below the surface of the water that players must endure. Despite this, the sport is almost totally devoid of injury from personal contact and generally speaking is played in the spirit demanded by the stringent rules.
