Backyard Water Polo

Split into two teams and assign each a goal to defend at opposite ends of the pool.

Start play with the ball tossed into the center for both teams to swim toward.

Players pass the ball hand to hand while treading water, without touching the pool floor.

Score a goal by throwing the ball into the opposing team's target area.

After each goal, restart from the center with a fresh toss-up.

Play to a set number of goals or a fixed time limit to decide the winner.
