WORLD WATER POLO REFEREES ASSOCIATION
ORDINARY FOUL
 When a defender attempts to take the ball from the
centre-forward and is obstructing his movement with his
body, but is not holding, pulling or sinking, then the
defender is penalized with an ordinary foul.
 Try to avoid awarding exclusion fouls automatically when
the ball lands into the centre position.

ADVANTAGE
 When the defender is positioned on the opposite side of
the centre forward’s playing hand, he is in a very good
position to take the ball from the centre without a foul.
 If the defender is in a horizontal position, the chances of
taking the ball without a foul are increased.

EXCLUSION FOUL
 Any attempt by the defender on the body of the centre
forward, without a clear intention to get the ball, will be
penalized with an exclusion foul.
 This occurs when the defender is in a vertical position
and the ball is passed to the centre-forward.

center -forward or is jumping over the center- forward’s
head is obstructing the center- forward’s movement. The

OFFENSIVE FOUL
 The centre forward cannot play under water. An
offensive foul must be given if the centre forward gains
advantage when receiving the ball by going under water.
 Any backward movement by the centre forward in using
hands or head to push the defender away, when the ball
is passed to him, must be penalized with an offensive
foul.

 If centre forward and defender are both holding each
other under water, without clear intention to control the
ball, and usually they don‘t even know where the ball is, a
double exclusion must be given.
 If they continue to play in this manner after the exclusion,
then they must be excluded with substitution for the
remainder of the game to prevent violent play.

PRESSING
 2 Types of pressing:
1. Un-allowed pressing (holding the attacker, preventing
movement)
2. Allowed pressing (controlling the attacker’s movement,
touching the attacker)
 Un-allowed pressing is a tactic for killing speed and the
action, which prevents intelligent players to play and
increase violent play.
10
WORLD WATER POLO REFEREES ASSOCIATION
 Holding or blocking attacking player, who is swimming
(driving in) or attempt to swimm, with one or both hands,
must be penalized with an exclusion.
 Agressive play by a defender using both hands, with the
intention of making a foul, must be penalized with an
exclusion. Tactical fouls must be penalized with an
exclusion.
11

 Defender, when positioned horizontally, is allowed to
control the movement of the attacker by touching and
swimming next to him.
 When a defender goes for the ball from a horizontal
position and the attacker shows no intention in playing for
the ball, advantage must be given to the defender for
active play.
 If the attacker swimms over the body of a defender in a
horizontal position, an offensive foul must be given.

head under water.

 It is important that the referee does not fall for the
simulation but gives an offensive foul.
 The referee may allow the game to continue until the
attacker loses the ball, but with clear signalisation to the
player, that simulation is not accepted.
16

the yellow card is awarded, they will be excluded with
substitution (red card).
