Introduction to Underwater Hockey

Are you missing your weekly underwater pool time? Want to try out a new and unique sport? 

Every Saturday from 5 to 6 pm for the month of April, there will be an “Introduction to Underwater Hockey” session in Hart House pool to address your symptoms of pool withdrawal. 

No prior hockey experience or specific equipment required, just your snorkelling gear. 

After each session, you’re also invited to join us at the chosen restaurant of the week for a quick and inexpensive meal.  

As an HHUC member, all you have to do is show your U of T student card or let the employee at the Hart House Fitness Desk know you’re there for underwater hockey to get into the Hart House pool (bring your own lock for a locker). See you on Saturdays this April!


SCUBA Swap Volunteering

The SCUBA swap is one of the largest SCUBA gear sales of its kind in Ontario. 

https://www.ouescuba.com/scuba-swap on Friday April 19th, and Saturday April 20th.

There is lots of new and used gear available to buy, and it is also an opportunity to sell gear. It is run by the OUE and other SCUBA enthusiasts who volunteer once a year to bring this event to the SCUBA community.

This is your opportunity to express your interest in volunteering to help with the SCUBA SWAP.

Volunteering gives you the opportunity to give back to the community as well as get a great chance to get dive gear at affordable prices, meet other divers and have some fun.

Volunteering entails helping Friday and/or Saturday, to register gear, or in other roles as well as an opportunity to shop first on Friday (only open to volunteers) and save $$$ on gear.   HHUC has had a volunteer group there for several years now. Volunteers will get a swap t-shirt, and food and drinks will be provided for breaks.

Gear registration happens Friday (opening to the public to register gear at 6pm) volunteers are asked to be there between 4-5:30pm depending on their role. The Swap runs 9am to 3pm on Saturday.   Volunteers will also receive a short training (about an hour) on their role in the weeks before the SWAP.We encourage people to help Friday and part or all of Saturday (morning or afternoon).
