Free Youth Underwater Hockey Try-It Night (Ages 10–14)

About this event

Hockey on the pool floor! Free intro night for kids ages 10–14 who can swim 50 yards. All gear provided. Kroc Center, Green Bay. Underwater hockey is a fast team sport played on the bottom of the pool. Players wear fins, a mask and snorkel, and use a short stick to push a weighted puck toward the other team's goal. It's one of the most welcoming sports around: size and strength matter less than timing, breath control and teamwork. Our free Try-It Nights are built for kids ages 10 to 14 who love the water. Especially kids who haven't found their fit in traditional sports.
