Yes, goalies can and do score. However, it does not happen often. Goalies usually shoot the last shot of a quarter or game, or if they notice that the other goalie is not paying attention or has come out of the cage. The better the players and the higher the level of competition, the less likely the shot will go in.
Polo is played on a field while on horseback with the player hitting the ball with a polo mallet in order for it to get into the goal, whereas in water polo it is played in the water and it has more of a resemblance to netball, except you are only allowed to catch with one hand. hope this helped!
There are 13 on each team, but only 7 play at one time (One of them is the goalie). The other 6 are subs and can be substituted in for any player (except the goalie) at any time. Goalies can be changed between quarters.
It takes 4 people to defend the goalies!!
Usually they don't, however there have been games where a goalie has taken a full court shot and scored, however for the most part there main objective is to not allow any goals.
Water polo because you can get drowned i played both but water polo players and the goalies have to swim from 1 mile to 20 miles a game. On top of that they have to try and get the ball past the goalie and the def in 30 sec and if its a 3 feet pool they still cant tough the bottom (unless your the goalie.) I have also been playing soccer for 12 years water polo players are aloud to punch the person there defending but in soccer if you even hit the person your def you could get a yellow or red card depending on the reff. You can get a broken ankle in soccer but it does not compare to an injery in water polo
