Dive Into Fun As Underwater Hockey Takes The Plunge

Last Thursday, the underwater hockey club made a splash with a record-breaking turnout of 20 players! That’s right, our aquatic arena was packed to the brim, and the energy was electric. With full teams and four substitutes, our positional and support play reached new depths!

However, we might need to rethink our guest policy. If newcomers like Boyd and Kurt have breath-holding skills that rival Aquaman, we could be in for a challenge! Seriously, folks, if you think you can outlast our new “gills,” come on down and test your mettle.

And let’s not forget our rising stars, Angus and Harry. These two have taken “annoyingly good” to a whole new level, leaving us all wondering if they’ve been secretly training with dolphins. But despite their impressive skills, it was a team effort that made the night a success. A huge shoutout to everyone who helped pack up afterward—it was a true display of teamwork!

So, if you’re looking for a sport that combines fitness, laughter, and a chance to show off your underwater skills (or lack thereof), come join us on Monday and Thursday nights! You might just find your new favourite hobby lurking beneath the surface.
