Doug Fleming and Jim Sitter have recently competed in an Inter- national Underwater Hockey tour- nament held in Ontario. Under- water hockey players from England, the United States and Canada participated in the tourna- ment held in Guelph University's new swimming pool. "It's no closer to hockey than field hockey. It's just another form of hockey," explained sitter. The object of the game is to get a three pound puck into the op- ponents goal propelling the puck across the bottom of the pool with short hand-held sticks. Players wear a mask, snorkel, fins and a glove to protect their shooting hand from scrapes. There are six players in the water for each team in- cluding a goalkeeper. Referees in the water and on the deck watch the play and call "frequent penalties" while lifeguards watch for trouble. It's a strict no contact game and the players come up for air in between plays. "People always ask us 'how long do you stay under holding your breath?" We stay down as long as we can," said Sitter. The ideal pool size for this sport is a 25 metre long pool with a depth of two metres. The floor should be a non-abrasive tile and it should have glass sides so spectators can view the game. Sitter said underwater hockey is only 30 years old "and still evolv- ing." The sport has changed dras- tically over the last ten years phas- ing out the crude plow -through- • Got a sports tip? Call the Times - Advocate 235-1331 your -opponent type of game to more of a passing and shooting game. Sitter has been involved with the sport for ten years and Fleming for six. Fleming said it is a phys- ically demanding sport that requires the endurance of a tri -athlete, the upper body strength of a gymnast and the speed of a boxer. But ac- cording to Sitter, "if you can get in the water you can play." Fleming admits "it's hard to find high calibre players because the sport is not wide spread." But he said the sport has one main advantage. "It's an ideal sport for people who suffer from injuries or don't want to get any injuries." Fleming ap- preciates this aspect of the game because he also plays rugby, a rough sport where injuries are com- mon. "It's easier on your body joints than most gravity -based sports," added Sitter. Both aquatic shinny players agree it takes a certain kind of mentality to enjoy this type of activity. "You have to be an adventurous type of person to put a mask on and go underwater after a puck," said Fleming. "When I first got into it I knew this was the experience I was looking for," he said. Sitter thinks it is only a matter of time before un- derwater hockey becomes a main- stream sensation. "Sooner or later this sport is going to be dis- covered," he said But for now the sport of under- water hockey remains obscure. "If your tired of the run-of-the-mill sports and your looking for a chal- lenge, this is it," said Sitter.
