TOTTON OCTOPUSH CLUB
WHAT?
Octopush is also known as Underwater Hockey, due to its similarity to ice hockey.
The official description (taken from the CMAS Referees Rule Book) is :
"... a sport played on the bottom of a swimming pool by two teams of six players, each wearing basic snorkelling equipment ie fins, mask and snorkel.The object of the match is to push or pass a lead puck along the bottom of the pool into the opposing team's goal by by using an underwater hockey stick."
The Kit
All you need to do is turn up, preferably with some sort of swimming attire(!) and we can lend you the rest for the session.
- Swimsuit/trunks - you provide these!
- Pair of flippers/fins
- Mask
- Snorkle

Sound mad? It is!
It's also very addictive, so come on and give it a try!
