	Parks & Recreation: Yeah, That's Right. Underwater Hockey - underwater hockey can bring money and publicity to sports facility - Abstract
		Although underwater hockey is very much like the original game of Octopush, building and combining swimming and free-diving skills, it has evolved into a very fast-paced and exciting game with strict rules and regulations.
		Underwater hockey, a non-contact sport, has rules discouraging the use of bodies or free hands (the hand without the stick) to detain obstruct other players; there is no body-checking, barging, or screening tolerated.
		Regulation underwater hockey is played in a 12- to 15-meter-wide, 21- to 25-meter-long, 2- to 4-meter-deep pool with a minimum pool area of 300 meters.

	How to Play Underwater Hockey
		The primary objective of underwater hockey is to push, pass, and shoot the puck into the opponents' goal as often as possible while preventing the other team from scoring in your goal.
		A typical underwater hockey stick is approximately 12 inches long, made out of 3/4 inch thick wood and painted either black or white for team identification.
		An underwater hockey glove should protect the stick hand from scraping on the pool bottom and protect from blows from opposing player's sticks and hard contact with the puck.

	Freediving - BreathHold Diving
		The rewards of freediving are as varied as the activities you can enjoy underwater - sightseeing, photography, underwater hockey, mono-fin diving and game gathering.
		The key to free diving is the longer you can hold your breath, the longer you can enjoy the beauty, freedom and mobility of being underwater.
		I find scuba diving to be a fascinating and adventurous sport, enabling personal exploration of underwater depths for extended periods of time.

	The Entertainment Depot - PC / Mac / Console Gaming : Xbox - Reviews - NHL Rivals 2004
		Pickup hockey allows up to six different Xboxes to log on and play a short little pickup game of 3-on-3 (or however you want to divide up six players) on an outside rink.
		On offense, the face buttons handle passing, shooting, dekeing, and dump passes, while on defense they handle checking, player switching, and diving, and the shoulder buttons handle pivoting and turbo.
		Rather than allow players to make their own dynamic deke on the fly to adjust to the situation, Rivals utilizes a single deke command that produces the same generic animation and results no matter how hard or often you cram on the poor B button.

	SNORKLE BUM FREE DIVERS PAGE
		In addition to features and profiles, we have information and links relating to free-diving activities such as Free Diving (breath-hold competition), Underwater Hockey, bluewaterSpearfishing, UnderwaterPhotography, monofin Fin Swimming, encounters with dangerous sealife, studies of marine mammals and other sealife, and even the ultimate in "free" diving, Nude Diving.
		One of our main aims here is to present new divers with alternatives to air tanks, but in addition to popularizing free diving sports we like to think our links, articles and bulletin boards will be of interest to veteran divers.
		In addition we have pages devoted to women divers, scouting reports on places to dive, equipment, dive techniques, diving stories, message board forums, and articles.

		Underwater hockey is, in fact, much better established around the world.

		Treakle dreams of someday attracting legions of underwater hockey players to the Washington region for a tournament, but for now, that's just a hope.
