B
Do you know underwater football? It started in Canada in the 1960s. It is an old and unusual sport, but many Canadians still like it now.
Like traditional football, underwater football is also a two-team sport. But what makes it different from traditional football is the place for the match. Players usually need to stay underwater to play it in a special swimming pool. So players are able to dive(潜水) as well as play football.
During the match, each team has 13 players, but only 5 players from each team are in the pool at a time. To score, players need to carry or pass a ball from one side of the swimming pool to the other. The player with the ball can swim with it or pass it to his team players. He can carry the ball not only with his feet, but also with his hands and legs or hold it against the body of another player. At the same time, players from the other team can try to take the ball or intercept a pass. Certainly, players need to wear special clothes to keep them safe. Each of them can go up to take the air when the ball is not in their hands.
