The minimum depth of a water polo pool, which are specially designed and flat bottomed, should be 1.8 meters. Other than the mid-pool line, which divides the pool into two equal halves, there are a couple of more line which are equally important for the game.
* 2 Meter Line: The attacking player should not cross this line without the possession of ball. The line is marked in red, and it also acts as a spot from where corner throws are to be taken.
* 4 Meter Line: The line marked in yellow acts as a barrier for the goal keeper, as once he crosses this line, he becomes a regular player. Penalty shots are taken from this line.
* 7 Meter Line: Any ordinary fouls outside this line, marked in green by the defending player gives the attacking team an opportunity to take a shot at the goal post. the attackers must succeed at the first attempt.
