Commonwealth Water Polo Championships

Actually, as far as the official rules are concerned, water polo is not an event which is directly associated with the authority. Therefore some other authorities are involved in the arrangements for these events.
As far as the history of Commonwealth water polo championships goes, these events took place for the first time in Manchester in England. The event took place in the year 2002. There were five major teams who participated in these events. These five teams were as follows:

• Australia
• England
• Canada
• South Africa and
• Northern Ireland

Australian players were the winners in the first Commonwealth water polo championships event. Canada and England were the countries who won the silver and bronze medals respectively. The 2002 Men's championships in the Commonwealth water polo event were a huge success. There were nine teams who were divided in two pools. In the pool A there were Malta, Australia, South Africa, Wales and Singapore. The teams in pool B there were England, Canada, Northern Ireland and New Zealand. In the year 2006, the next Commonwealth water polo championships took place in Perth in Australia. Australia was the team which won this event in both the categories of men and women.
