Intro:

Hungary's water polo team have been gearing up for the Olympics in Budapest as they look for a fourth successive gold medal.

Script:

With tickets for every event at the Olympics like gold dust people might be turning their attention to lesser known sports such as water polo in order to be apart of the Games.

For those who will be watching the event the team to look out for this summer will be Hungary.

The Hungarian team are looking for an unprecedented fourth successive gold medal in the men's discipline of the sport and are currently training in Budapest.

Hungary have won 10 water polo gold medals over all and current coach Denes Kemeny believes his team are justifiable one of the favourites for yet another Olympic title.

SOUNDBITE (Hungarian) of Denes Kemeny, head coach:

"We've never been to a world-class competition or to an Olympics where only the Hungarian team was expected to win.

Before Sydney, four or five teams were mentioned as favourites and two ahead of Athens. Three or four were mentioned ahead of Beijing and we were among them. One of these will win and I think were are in that group now, too."

Goalkeeper Zoltan Szecsi was part of the team that snapped a 24-year wait for water polo gold in Sydney in 2000 and admits his dream of a fourth gold is under serious threat from up to five other countries.

SOUNDBITE (Hungarian) Zoltan Szecsi, goalkeeper:

"This is our dream. We would like the win the gold medal again.

Many others have the same dream; many would like the same thing. Three, four and even five teams have a chance. We are going to take away their chances."

Hungary will play several pre-Olympic warm-up matches before heading to London, where the men's tournament starts on July 29.
