This Underwater Hockey Rules Course is an introductory level training module covering the basic rules of Underwater Hockey that a referee must know. It is recommended that all players also go through this package at least once / year (the suggested time is in preparation for Nationals). Successfully completing this course allows you to referee at National competitions.
