Summary

The global water polo equipment market size reached USD 3.8 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 5.3 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.59% during 2025-2033. The increasing popularity of water sports, the easy product availability at affordable price points, and the growing inclusion of water polo as a part of extracurricular activity represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Water polo is a seven-sided sports game that involves seven swimmers in each team competing to receive and deliver the ball into the opponents’ goals. This game requires caps, swimming trunks, suits, balls, goal posts, swim goggles, mouthguards, and various storage devices, such as ball carts and bags, as the standard equipment. Some of these components are usually manufactured from nylon, cotton, latex, silicone, rubber, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials. Water polo equipment maintains the individual’s body temperature, prevents the ball from slipping out during the gameplay, and protects players against harsh environmental conditions, including strong winds and sunburns. Apart from this, water polo equipment helps regulate body temperature, provides optimal comfort, reduces muscle fatigue, and prevents the risk of severe injuries. As a result, water polo equipment is extensively used during the gameplay by sports players to maintain the optimal safety while ensuring the ease of movement while playing.
