The spirit of Water Skyball is based on universal values such as fair play, respecting other players, will to win, constant pushing and exceeding of our own physical and mental limits. The tools, rules and the schedule of the championships were developed along these values – that is to say, they were created so that contest, challenge and development are possible for every player.
One of the main rules for this new generation sport is the so-called non-contact rule, and the point of it is that the players care for each other for the sake of protecting one another’s, as well as their own safety. Because of the non-contact rule, there is a big emphasis on attention, tactics, quick thinking, cooperation of teammates, and all of this along with the serious physical load and excitement of competition during the championships, as well as in the intense contest during matches.
WSB is the common passion of all players, referees and coaches. Their common goal is constant development, both their own and of the sport itself. They train for the next season together, inspiring each other for better performance and to constantly increase the quality of the game. It is also part of the spirit of Water Skyball that both players, and referees aim to maintain the spirit while playing and refereeing the game, and their joint effort forge them into a team.
