Sep. 23, 2010 - Under Water Hockey
Rhode Island Red Under Water Hockey League is starting up again.......... I just started playing UW Hockey last season and it's Fun as all hell and a great way to increase your breath hold capablitys, excersize and relieve stress as well. This is a mixed crowd of both males and females, young and not so young and from beginner to annoyingly awesome players. This is a "pick-up game" so teams change each week. It is very humbling at first and a little crazy until you start to get in the bait ball of stick weilding, lead puck (teflon coated)wrangling, players that seem not to need to breathe much at all. It is tiring and I was sore from using muscles I don't regularly use but it was awesome! Of course we go out for beers after as is the custom to talk and socialize as well as for the NewBees (like me) to ask questions and learn from the pros. This Thursday will be the 3rd time for me and this sport is open to any that would like to join even if only for one time. It starts at 7:30 - 7:45 pm in Providence to get (un)dressed and warm up. The first time is on the house and repeat participation is a $10.00 contribution to help pay for the pool. All you need in the beginning is a bathing suit, mask Fins and snorkel. There will be sticks and gloves and helmet available. Think you are up to it??? Wanna have a great time with a bunch of divers who like to get wet and keep skills sharp in the winter........ Check out these websites below or call Giant Stride For more info. http://groups.google.com/group/rireduwh/web/regional-games?hl=en http://www.rireduwh.com/ Rhode Island Red Underwater Hockey is sponsored by Giant Stride Dive Shop who gives a 10% discount to team players for any items purchased in the dive shop.
