Preface

(Version 5.0)In 2005, FINA (Federation Internationale de Natation) adopted a number of new waterpolo rules. These new rules have been adopted in their entirety by USA Water Polo(USAWP), and many of the rules have also been adopted by the National CollegiateAthletic Association (NCAA) and the National Federation of State High SchoolAssociations (NFHS). Thus, these new rules are now used in virtually all water polocompetitions, and
