BARI 2007

Just curious, will there be a new trophy for winning teams at the Bari "World Championship" or are they using the existing ones... I don't think the women's trophy will be in Europe at the time, unless Tan's got it hiding away in the Netherlands.

Guess what?!! They've created a forum on the Bari website - even using the same software as underwater hockey world.... maybe this is an opportunity for all loyal underwater hockey players to let CMAS hear us! The address is http://forum.cmasbari2007.org/index.php

Alex,
I'm putting that on the Home page. Can you start a new thread with this topic for me?

Do we have to wear Mouth guards in Bari?
(not the rubber protectors that you put in your mouth but the white plastic that is on your snorkel)
How much do they cost?

As this is a CMAS competition being played under CMAS rules I would assume that mouthguards must be worn, either the in mouth ones or the official CMAS Carol Rose guard which is fitted to your snorkel.

OK, so we would like to buy 15 Carol Rose white mouth guards!
If someone is so kind to buy them for us and bring them to Bari it would be perfect. Person will be awarded, that's for sure.
There is no way we can find something like these in Slovenia.

Thanks

Kind of random, but possibly a useful article for players intending on competing at Bari 2007:
Heatwave in Italy forces no-tie policy


Health officials are urging fashion-conscious Italians to beat the heat by taking off their ties. In an unforgiving heatwave, the Health Ministry is advising males to loosen their ties.

"Taking off the tie produces an immediate decrease in the body temperature, by about two or three degrees celsius," health officials said in a news release.

Temperatures registered at 39 degrees celsius in the northern city of Ferrara, and at 38 celsius in cities such as Florence and Bologna, with hot winds and high humidity gripping most of the country. Forecast say the temperatures will stay the same in coming days, and electricity demand is soaring.

A no-tie policy would lower demands for electricity by reducing the need for air conditioning, health officials noted.

"It is a small gesture that costs nothing but which can help people btter tolerate the exceptional heat of this period," it said.
Reaction in fashion-conscious Italy was mixed.

The ENI oil giant said it has already allowed its employees to wear informal attire.But writer Alain Elkann told Corriere della Sera he never appears in public without a tie.

"With the air conditioning, it also becomes an excellent protection against a sore throat," he said.
