Water polo at the 1922 Women's Olympiad
Women's water polo was in the early 20th-century a rising sport. Until 1922 not many international matches have been held. However the Netherlands and Great Britain already played once against each other. In January 1914 the Ladies Water Polo Club played two matched in the Netherlands against the Dutch women's water polo team of the Hollandsche Dames-Zwemclub (H.D.Z.) in Amsterdam and The Hague. At the last Olympics, the 1920 Summer Olymipics, women's water polo was a demonstration event, where two women's teams from the Netherlands played against in each other in an exhibition match.
