Beach Water Polo Fours will once again be staged at Little Beach, Nelson Bay on Sunday, March 1, shrinking from a two-day event to one in 2020.
Unlike regular water polo, Fours has a continuous play format. That means there is no 'up and back' swimming required and the ball is always in play.
Other rule modifications include a reduced field size - 18 metres instead of 25m - and the ability to substitute from anywhere on the field at any time.
Teams are a minimum of four players and a maximum of eight. Categories include open men's, open women's and mixed social. Registrations are now being taken at beachwaterpolofours.com.
