Water polo is a team water sport requiring an ability to swim. Field players must swim end to
end of a 30-meter pool non-stop many times during a game. The front crawl stroke used in water polo
differs from the usual swimming style in which water polo players swim with the head out of water at
all times to observe the field. The arm stroke used is also a lot shorter and quicker and is used to protect
the ball at all times. Backstroke is used by defending field players to track advancing attackers and by
the goalie to track the ball after passing. Water polo backstroke differs from swimming backstroke; the
player sits almost upright in the water, using eggbeater leg motions with short arm strokes to the side
instead of long straight arm strokes. This allows the player to see the play and quickly switch positions.
It also allows the player to quickly catch an on coming pass with a free hand.
