Water Polo

First and foremost, hockey does not have "quarters". It is played in three sections known as "periods". Secondly, the length of each period is unique to the level of hockey that is being played. For a game of professional hockey (i.e. NHL, ECHL, AHL, the Olympics) the periods have a clock time of twenty minutes. Of course this varies with the amount of stopages in the game for penalties, fights, and the rare time out. In hockey that is played for fun by children the periods are often shortened to last from fourteen to twelve minutes.

The basics are a mallet, a helmet (for you), gloves (usually optional) and comfortable clothes. For your horse you do need to snip the mane, polo wraps for their legs, a saddle, light-weight saddle pad, bridle, and you may want to braid and bind the tail so it doesn't get pulled or caught in something.

The only part of the baseball field that has to be the same in all fields is the infield. The outfield and foul territories can be different.

The batter's circle is 26'

The batter's box is 4' x 6' and is 6 in. away from home plate on either side.

The catcher's box is 43 in wide starting at the plate and extends 8' back

Around the batter and catcher area is a 26' circle. The back-end of that circle constitutes the middle of the distance between the two on-deck circles, which are 37' away from this location. The on-deck circles are 5' circles.

The baseball diamond is a square at a 45 degree angle with each corner (middle of base) 90' apart.

The pitcher's mound is an 18' circle with the pitcher's rubber almost in the center, 60' 6" away from the point of home plate. (the corner of the diamond) The rubber is 10' 6" away from the front of the mound.

The grass line (the border separating the infield and the outfield) is a 95' radius from the middle of the pitcher's mound and travels around from one foul line to the other.

The coach's box starts 15' away from the corner of either base (1st or 3rd) and is 20' parallel to the foul line. It can be a minimum of 1' to a maximum of 10' back.

The base path is 6' wide with the foul line in the center.

Around each base (1st, 2nd, 3rd) on the inner part of the diamond is a 13' radius.

The length between each corner (1st and 3rd, or 2nd and Home) is 127 feet 3 3/8 in.

YES it is very hard. When you've been playing non stop for the whold game about to puke your guts, all the while treading water and getting grabbed, punched kicked. yeah i consider it at the same level as Hockey and Football

Waterpolo is a violent sport as well. It has many dimensions that are not always shown in playing. Yes, you have to have some fitness to be able to swim the entire time and tread high, but you also have to be able to take punches and elbows and continue to play. I have played for almost 6 years, and for the past three i have been playing High School waterpolo. During the state Tournament in which my team took first, while i was playing holeset, i was dunked, knee-ed, kicked off of, punched, jabbed, and kicked in the nuts. I would consider waterpolo the same level of difficulty as football, if not a bit harder because there is no stopping until someone scores, but in terms of violence, it is a different violence than football.

In the water at any one time each team has 7 players (6 outfield players and 1 goalie) playing, therefore from both teams a total of fourteen are in the pool playing.

However a team also consists of up to 6 substitutes making a team of 13 players including the goalies. An active player has to have left the pool before a substitute can replace them, however this can occur at any time during the match, substitutions do not have to wait until a break in play. The reason for the large number of substitutes is due to the physical nature of the game requiring regular substitutions to allow players to play at their full capacity. Also with only 6 outfield players there is no where to hide during a match, with all players having to actively contribute to attack and defense.
