This is our Water Game!!!

[Ginger Power]

I was playing water polo in gym today and made the connection. Aerial Assist is most closely related to Water Polo!

- Robots/People can be on offense and defense at the same time
- The objective is to pass the ball from teammate to teammate down the field/pool to score in a goal/net
- There is a goalie that is required to be in a certain zone
- Gaining and maintaining possession of the game ball is key

Any other connections? I'm not extremely familiar with the game of water polo.

Obviously there are differences between the two but there has been with every sports related game. Let me know if anybody else has made this connection.

I always thought it related more to handball.

I've got this hunch that the balls won't be filled with air during the competition. The game manual mentioned the precautions if the ball was punctured during the match. If the ball was filled with water, we would have a completely different situation on our hands.
