PE 1106
Introduction to Water Polo

Course information provided by the 2026-2027 Catalog.

This course teaches the fundamental skills needed to play water polo. Basic rules and terminology are covered and skills taught include: swimming and treading techniques (eggbeater kick), passing and shooting, defensive techniques, and team strategy. There are a total of eighteen hours of instruction in the pool, with a mix of drills, guided practice, and scrimmages. A strong swimming background is required — typically the equivalent of a high school varsity swimmer. This is a co-ed course open to all beginners. If you have played competitive water polo before, this course is not for you. If you have any questions about your suitability for the course, please contact the instructor.
