  • A History of Octopush
    A History of Octopush Written by Ken Kirby from articles by Alan Blake, E. John Towse and Cliff Underwood and with reference to BOA archive documents. Sub aqua diving around the coast of Great Britain in wintertime is not the most fun thing to do for most divers. Many turn to their local swimming pool to practise and keep fit. In 1954 Alan Blake, the Club Secretary of the Southsea British Sub Aqua Club decided to find a more fun way of spending time in a swimming pool and started to come up with ideas. Several schemes were mooted and discarded as impractical but one day in Jack and Ena Willis’s kitchen drinking tea along with Frank and Hazel Lilleker, and his wife Sylvia, Alan laid out his plans for a winter sport that they could hopefully develop. His plan was for teams of eight to propel a circular disc - possibly made of lead – with short sticks, to opposite ends of the swimming pool. As keen divers they wanted to maintain their links with the sea so they named the disc a Squid and the scoring area a Cuttle (later re-named the gulley). The short wooden stick became a pusher as that is what it was used for. The name of the game was simple - eight players gave them Octo and pushing the squid gave them Octo-push. (Although it was quickly realised 8 players on each side rather fills a swimming pool so teams were later reduced to 6 a side in the playing area). It has been suggested that knocking a diving weight around the bottom of the swimming pool with snorkels was the origin of Octopush, but at no time did this happen.

  • Example---Underwater Hockey
    Connect the Components to a Sport or Exercise Activity In no less than two paragraphs (minimum of 5 well-developed sentences per paragraph), describe a sport or exercise activity of your choosing using both the Health and Skill Related Components. Your first paragraph should include a description of your sport in terms of anaerobic or aerobic characteristics. Is it more anaerobic or aerobic in nature and explain why? The second paragraph should include one or more of the Health-Related Components and two or more of the Skill-Related Components in your description of the sport. Describe how those components relate and underline the key terms (components discussed in class). The following is an example that may be helpful, write however in your own style and capability. Example----Underwater Hockey Underwater hockey is a blend of both anaerobic and aerobic exercise. Anaerobic in that players have to hold their breath exhausting their supply of available oxygen much like what happens in a high intensity sprint when muscles can no longer maintain highest intensities because the need for more oxygen is greater than what the body can provide at that intensity. So in underwater hockey players have to surface, clear their snorkel and then inhale (hopefully only air) to replenish their oxygen and likewise sprinters have to slow down after a few seconds of level 5 intensity in order to allow their bodies the time needed to replenish oxygen to their muscles. The continuous process of kicking underwater as well as high oxygen consumption places underwater hockey primarily in the cardiovascular endurance component.

  • Underwater Hockey Safety Regulations
    Underwater Hockey Safety Regulations Underwater Hockey, also known as Octopush, is a supreme aerobic game. It was invented in the early 1950s by sub-aqua divers in Southsea who got bored just swimming up and down pool lanes to get fit. The game is now played worldwide. Underwater hockey is fast, furious, and fun ... and you can join in. How do you play? Players wear the basic equipment of a mask, snorkel, fins, and water polo hat. They hold a small stick, about the size of a spatula, in a gloved hand. The idea of the game is to use the stick to push the 1.2 kilogramme puck into the opposing team's goal, which consists of a three metre tray at the opposing end of a 25 metre pool. Why is it the supreme aerobic game? All other sports allow the participants to breathe as they play. But in underwater hockey, players breathe through their snorkels on the top of the water before diving down to do battle with their opponents. Some players can stay down for a long time indeed, but the real skill of the game is judging when to dive. It can take just a few seconds to tackle an opponent and pass the puck to a colleague, and then return to the surface for a well-earned breath! How many play? There are 10 people in a team, but only six are allowed in the water at one time. This results in fast substitutions which resemble tag wrestling. The idea is to work quickly, and then get out to recover.

  • Safety Guidelines for Underwater Sports
    Underwater Society of America Safety Guidelines for Underwater Sports The Underwater Society of America (USOA) has adopted the following Safety Guidelines for participants in USOA sanctioned underwater activities. While no sporting activity is without risk, the USOA feels these Safety Guidelines will minimize what little risk exists in underwater sports training or competition. USOA plays four underwater sports - local to international level. Athletes wear masks, fins and snorkels. There are two team sports: underwater hockey and underwater rugby. There are two individual sports: fin swimming and skindiving spearfishing. Underwater Hockey is a snorkeling sport played in a hard-bottomed pool with depths of up to 12 feet. Short sticks are used to push and pass a 3-pound puck along the pool bottom into the opponents goal. Underwater Rugby is also a snorkeling sport played up to depths of 16 feet. A negatively buoyant ball is used, and play is both in the water column as well as at the pool bottom. Because the play occurs underwater for both sports, players must use controlled breathing and dive underwater for short periods of time while in play. In these team sports, players dive down to play in close coordination with their teammates to score or defend a goal. Fin swimming is classic swim competition for speed with fins. Skindiving spearfishing is a fishing competition where no scuba is used. Extended underwater breath holding can increase the risk of unconsciousness. USOA realizes the risk of such an occurrence is extremely low due to the inherent nature of the sports. However, the organization requires that all underwater sport athletes players read, understand and agree to follow these guidelines: 1) Hyperventilation is not allowed prior to or during underwater sports activities.

  • Underwater Hockey Is an Interesting and Unique Game on Several Levels. While Everyone Brings Their Distinctive Personality to T
    Underwater Hockey is an interesting and unique game on several levels. While everyone brings their distinctive personality to their play, there are two basic types of players. You can play with strength or you can play with finesse. There are advantages and disadvantages to each, and each approach fits a particular body size and type. When you mix the different types of playing styles together, you can get a very interesting game. STRENGTH PLAYERS Strength in underwater hockey is exactly what it sounds like – pure physical power. Physically, the strong player is generally larger, heavier and more muscular than other players. This size renders them almost unstoppable when they are making a forward charge. With strength a player can easily force a puck away from another player, and they can move through opponents, effectively taking them out of the play. It can be difficult to stop a strong player, especially if they can build up forward momentum. There are disadvantages for strength players, though. For example, a large framed, muscular body is difficult to get moving, and a lot of energy is used by the strength player to start a fast forward progression. Once moving forward, a large, muscular body is difficult to turn. So if a strength player runs into a situation where he can no longer continue charging forward, a turn or curl can be difficult and even awkward, opening up the possibility to lose momentum at best and lose the puck at worst. Another disadvantage is the more muscular a person, the more oxygen they will need when expending energy, because they have to feed all that muscle.
