Pretty much anyone from the age of 11 can play, and there is even a junior version of water polo called 'flippaball' for 9 and 10 year olds.
Water Polo is so named because of its likeness to normal polo and the fact that it is played in water. In reality, it is more similar to Rugby but "water rugby" doesn't have quite the same ring to it.
those two sports are totally different the polo is the land sport and water polo is a water sport :D

11 is not too old to play water polo! Depending on your area, there may not even be many opportunities for younger kids to play. Many athletes begin their water polo careers as they enter high school because this is their first opportunity to play. Look for club teams in your area and see if they offer programs for your age group. Good luck!
