Australian Water Polo was created in 1982.
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
Most countries play water polo in some shape or form, ranging from national teams competing in the likes of the Olympics to school and small-time clubs just playing for fun. It would probably be easier to list the countries that do not play water polo than those that do.
The size of the axle nut for a Volkswagen Polo has changed throughout the years. Older models used a 30mm nut while newer models use a 36 mm nut.
Polo didn't have a crew to feed. IF he had ships of the time did load barrels of water and dried foods in the hold. They would get fresh foods in ports where they stopped. It took Polo and his father 4 years to reach China and it wasn't all by water.
Water polo is a fairly simple sport in terms of the equipment used, there have been improvements over the last 100 years in water polo equipment: * the ball was originally made of leather which absorbed water during the match, it is now a rubber ball which is earier to grip * trunks were originally cotton or wool causing a lot of drag in the water, modern trunks are rubberised material which causes less drag and are harder for the opposition to hold onto
Polo was 17 and with his father and uncle to China. It was not his expedition. It took them 4 years to go from Italy to China so the number of people on it changed as the years passed. No information tells exactly how many there were when the party arrived in China.
