Emotion in motionLittle is known about the origins of water polo. However, it is known that the sport originated in the rivers and lakes of mid-nineteenth century England as a water version of rugby. Early games used an inflated, rubber ball from India known as a "pulu,"pronounced "polo" by the English. Both the ball and the game became known as water polo.Todd Warshaw/Allsport |
