LEARN TO COMPETE AND COLLABORATE. BECOME A WATERPOLO PLAYER.
Water polo is a challenging sport that requires both stamina and endurance! It is a competitive team sport played in the water between two teams.
The game consists of four quarters in which the two teams attempt to score goals by throwing the ball into the opposing team's goal. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins the match.
Each team is made up of six field players and one goalkeeper. Except for the goalkeeper, players participate in both offensive and defensive roles. Water polo is typically played in an all-deep pool meaning that players cannot touch the bottom.
Did you know?
The game was originally called “football-in-the-water,” and indeed it is more like association football and basketball than polo, the name of the sport coming from an earlier form of the game in which players rode barrels painted like horses and struck the ball with sticks.
Who is it for?
Unlike other LNC sport departments, the LNC Water Polo Team does not have a recreational department. The team is only training for elite performance. Therefore, hard work and discipline are key when it comes to following the demanding, well-structured training programmes.
The team is open to both males and females older than 7 y.o.
Why this sport?
Some mental benefits include:
As for the physical benefits:
As if these weren’t enough, water polo is also easy on joints! The water acts as a cushion on joints and muscles, preventing injury and general aches and pains associated with traditional fitness
Why train with LNC?
The Limassol Nautical Club Water Polo team is training at the Olympic Swimming Pool at Dasoudi in Limassol which offers excellent facilities for the demanding training sessions. Our excellent team of coaches combines both Cypriot and International trainers from established countries in this sport, such as Serbia.
The team has great management and many of our players have played in National teams in Cyprus and abroad!
