  Abstract:  VIEW PDF: HOW MUCH DOES A WATER POLO PLAYER SWIM DURING A GAME?

It has always been a curiosity about how much athletes run, skate or swim in various team sports. Beside many variables, the different environment of the field of play will determine the speed and distance on how fast and how far an athlete moves during a game. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the distance a water polo player swims during one game. We have used two distinctive methods in our research according to whether the game was played in an indoor or an outdoor pool. Recognizing more accurately the distances swum by players during a water polo game it could be useful to improve planning of training and to evaluate the players’ performances in different competitions. Keywords: swimming, water polo, tracking distance, team sport, performance.
