What is it?
Think of hockey played in a swimming pool. Didn't help much did it?
Underwater hockey (AKA Octopush) is a fast action, largely non-contact game played on
the bottom of a pool.
Two teams of six players pit their wits, and lungs, against each other and try to score
goals by pushing or flicking the puck into their opponents goal.
What equipment will I need?
At first, just basic snorkelling gear (mask, fins, and snorkel). Once
you're hooked you'll want to get your own pusher (the stick),
a hat and some kind of protective glove.
When do you play?
Friday nights at Dalry Pool (About 5 mins walk from Haymarket Station)
| Junior session | 7:45 - 8:30
|
| Adult session | 8:30 - 9:30
|
If it's your first time, come along for the junior session.
Don't worry if you don't have any equipment.
