The Basics...
All water polo games are played in Schlessman Natatorium. League play is organized
in accordance with a round robin format. Final season rankings will be determined
by 1) winning percentage, 2) head to head play, 3) number of forfeits, and/or 4)
a playoff game. The top teams in each division will advance to a single elimination
tournament to determine the overall champion. All members of the winning team
will receive IM Champion t-shirts.
General playing rules include the following: Play begins with a "swim off," where each team touches the wall and races to the center of the pool where the ref throws the ball. Players are required to sit in the inner tube. Male players are only allowed to catch, throw, manipulate, or maneuver the ball with one hand; both female players and goalies are permitted to use two hands. Appropriate swimming attire is required -- cut offs are not permitted. All Water Polo rules may be found in the IM Rules folder.
Unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated. The following behaviors will
result in a warning and the possibility of a game ejection and subsequent
expulsion: cursing at the officials, superviosrs, or opposing players and/or
insulting the officials, supervisors, or opposing players. Participating in
a fight and/or intentional/flagrant fouls will result in an automatic ejection.
Participants ejected from a game are prohibited in playing in their next TWO
scheduled games.
