Pre-Tournament
The North Island Inter Club Championships are traditionally held
in the central location of Rotorua in May or June each year. The
hot pools are also a bonus to sooth tired and weary muscles. In recent
years a return to an organised function has been made to bring more
of an underwater hockey community feel to the event. The long Queen's Birthday
weekend is ideal for this as two days of play are needed due to the size
of the tournament. If not held on the long weekend teams usually
arrive on the Friday night, play commences Saturday morning, teams
have quiet team dinners on the Saturday night because they have games
the next morning, round robin games complete on Sunday morning, finals
are held Sunday afternoon, the prizegiving is pool side and then teams
depart for home on Sunday evening.
Usually four grades are offered, Premier, A, B and C and in recent years a
Womens grade has also been offered. In 2005 an Open Novice grade
is also offered, to cater for those teams made up of players who
have not attended a club competition before.
