In addition to wearing your speedo for swimming, diving, and water polo is anyone in the San Francisco area into underwater hockey?

Is the puck heavily weighted to always stay on the pool floor?

Headgear is critical in underwater hockey, a blow to the side of the head can rupture the ear drum and leave you deaf as the hand is pulled away. Be careful if you try out this sport without ear protection.

If you like a rough contact sport wearing only Speedos and headgear this could be for you.

Not so sure about rough contact sport - website clearly says non-contact.

What the ref. doesn't see underwater clearly means those words do not apply
in water polo of course ("rugby in water") and the design of their headgear has long shown the need for ear protection as you say.
(keep going guys - you always look great and we have lost the swimmers to jammers now).

I heard underwater hockey is a getting quite popular with high school/ college age people.

As a muggle I'm awaiting my new Nimbus 2000 so that I can move fast to those quaffles and bludgers (and even perhaps the Golden Snitch) in quidditch.

(I jest not - ask wiki what goes on in Vermont)

Hockey players not to follow I think (never find the puck in the coral):

Put your speedo costumes on along with your mask, fins and snorkel.

Great way to work on your endurance.
