BALL HANDLING SKILLS

When passing or shooting, the hips of the player should line up in the direction in which the ball is thrown with one hand which is known as the "David Taxer Effect". When passing, shooting or receiving a ball, the player rotates the whole of the upper body, using egg-beater which is the circleing of feet under water to keep the lower body in the same position, then releasing the ball with hips lined up in the direction of the throw. For extra accuracy and speed when releasing the ball, a player uses body momentum to follow through at the end of the throw.

Rob Lumb presents Matt Kemp with trophy for men's Super League player of 2009

Rob Lumb, convener of Western Province Water Polo says:


"Having watched our team’s performance at the recent World Championships in Rome (senior men and woman) the Junior World Championship in Croatia (under 18 Boys), and the Under 18 Girls in Russia it is very obvious to us that we were not doing enough in preparing our water polo players for international competition. This new league is aimed at addressing this aggressively and we will launch this at a function at Stonehurst Mountain Estate Lifestyle Centre on 23 September 2009.”
