York Octopush

Added by Jodie Davies on 19/01/2011

For anyone who isn't familiar with octopush, or underwater hockey as it's known outside the UK, it is a non-contact sport, played by two teams of 6 players who use mask, fins, snorkel and a short stick or pusher to move a puck along the bottom of the swimming pool into the opposing teams goal. If you (or your children if you are a parent) are competent swimmers and are interested in octopush, please come along to try it out. The first session is free (subsequent sessions are £3 adults or £2 juniors), and all equipment (except a swimming costume and towel) and training is provided.
