Water polo is a sport that requires strength and endurance and depends largely on cooperative spirit. Little is known about the nutritional status and eating behaviours of water polo athletes. That's why the purpose of this study was to assess the nutritional status of a team of male water polo players. These results indicate that many of the water polo athletes studied had energy and nutrient intakes that do not meet requirements for optimal performance.
