About
Water Polo was invented in Scotland in the late-19th Century, by William Wilson, a Swimming Coach, with what he termed “Aquatic Football”, combining elements of Soccer, Rugby, Wrestling and American Football, all while treading water.
The first game took place in the River Dee, Aberdeen, and shortly afterwards, the Swimming association of Great Britain officially recognised the sport and the rules as codified by William Wilson.
