Menzieshill Water Polo

Water polo, unlike popular belief, is not played with horses. While this would be quite funny, it would be sadly inappropriate. The basic idea of the sport is to score more goals than the opposition, so it's a bit like football really, except instead of kicking the ball (which is perfectly legal), you throw it using one hand only.
