  • Tiger Times SPECIAL EDITION July / August 2020
    SWIMMER’S NEWSLETTER FOR PRINCETON TIGER AQUATICS CLUB Tigers are Back in the Pool! by: Aditi Pavuluri It’s been a strange past few months for swimmers across the country, and one of the few times in history where there have been no competitions or practice taking place. The Olympics were postponed for the first time ever, and competitive swimmers across the globe are wondering when they can start competing again. As of two weeks ago, swimmers have taken to the pool for the first time in months. To pass the time, they’ve been working out over Zoom, and doing as much work as they could while still socially distanced. By working on technique, starts, turns, and speed, the Tigers have been trying to get in as much swimming as they can to make up for lost time. It will be a fresh start for us, and a way to start using muscles that haven’t been awoken in months. And though we’ve been staying in shape, we might not necessarily have been staying in swimming shape. Getting back into the pool is something that every swimmer is having to experience, and know that we’re in this together. So right now is the perfect time to improve on something that you’ve been holding off on during competition season. Our perspective might have to change from “getting back to where we came from” to “how far we can go”. Take advantage of this new and unusual time to better yourself as a swimmer. Go Tigers!

  • Canoe Polo About the Game
    CANOE POLO ABOUT THE GAME INTRODUCTION Five players per team play a game similar to water polo, with a few minor alterations. Each of the 5-aside team, (plus subs) are in kayaks, and the goals are suspended in the air. Canoe polo is similar to basketball in that it is based on possession, passing, blocking, and scoring, though with the addition of tackling under tightly prescribed rules. A team game for all ages where skills will dominate strength, that is extremely safe due to protective equipment, the indoor pool environment, and close adult supervision. GEAR One kayak, one double-bladed paddle, one helmet with facemask, a spray deck and a buoyancy vest. (All provided by WCPA) SOME OF THE RULES NUMBER OF PLAYERS Each team may consist of a maximum of eight (8) players for any one game. No more than five (5) players are permitted on the playing area at any one time. Any other players at that moment are to be considered as substitutes. A team must begin each game with five (5) players, ready to start on or behind their own goal line. If a team is reduced to two (2) ​ ​ players at any time the referee shall end the game. PLAYING TIME Playing time shall be two (2) periods each of eight (8) - ten (10) minutes. The half time interval will be two (2) minutes. The teams shall change ends at half time. START OF GAME At the beginning of each game, five (5) players will line up ready to start, stationary and with some part of their kayaks on or behind their own goal line.

    1 WATER POLO FOR PLAYERS & TEACHERS OF AQUATICS Pete Snyder, Ph. D. Professor, Fullerton College, Fullerton, California Layout Design: Mary Jo Reutter ©2008, updated 2017. All rights reserved. This manual may not, in whole or in part, be copied, photocopied, reproduced, translated, or converted to any electronic or machine readable form without prior written consent of the author. It is Web-pub- lished by the LA84 Foundation under a license from the author. Printed in the USA 2 Acknowledgements This book would not have been completed and had its particular attention to detail without the help and support of the following individuals. First I’d like to thank Mr. Lundy Smith, an English teacher and head Girls Water Polo Coach at Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire. Lundy was most helpful in points of emphasis and grammatical structure in the book. I’d also like to thank Roger Nekton from Phillips Exeter. Roger just retired as head boys water polo and swimming coach after a long and very distinguished career of over thirty years at the Academy. Roger provided valuable technical input as well as encouragement regarding the need for written material in the sport of water polo. As a picture is worth a thousand words, I’m very indebted to Mrs. Chris Kittredge of CMK Enterprises (www.tudorgraphics.com). Chris was able to capture some of the more difficult team aspects of the game only because of her dedication, extensive knowledge of over twenty years with the sport and her brilliance as a photographer. Matt Brown (www.mattbrownphoto.com) is another photographer who exhibited a tremendous amount of alacrity in his water polo photos.

  • Hockey Substitute Goalkeeper Guidelines
    RETURN TO HOCKEY SUBSTITUTE GOALKEEPER GUIDELINES As a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Teams are not able to access affiliate players during the 2020-2021 season. The following guidelines have been established to provide direction to teams on how to manage a situation when their registered goalie(s) are unavailable. Within the Divisions of Senior and Junior, as well as the AAA and AA categories of U18, U16, U15 and U13 the following process(es) will be in place: • When a team only has one goaltender available for a scheduled League game and is seeking access to a back-up goaltender: 1. Teams should consult with each other to determine whether or not the opposing Team will have a properly registered back-up goaltender available. If so, that goaltender should be used as a Substitute should either Team’s goaltender become injured or ill; or 2. If each Team only has 1 properly registered goaltender available for a game, Teams have the ability to apply for access to a Substitute Goalkeeper through the normal application process outlined within the Regulations. ▪ Only one Substitute Goaltender will be considered for a pair/ group of Teams within a ‘Competition Cohort’; ▪ If approved, the Team(s) must ensure that all protocols for using a Substitute Goalkeeper (as outlined below) are adhered to; 3. Or, If an eligible Substitute Goalkeeper is not able to be found or approved, and a goaltender becomes injured or ill, Teams have the ability to dress a player or play the remainder of the game with 6 skaters (as per the Hockey Canada Playing Rules).
