Background - A sport played widely in Europe and Asia since the late 18th/early 19th century. More dominantly played by females in America, it is a sport played by both men and women. As the years passed, the equipment for this sport has evolved greatly. Known simply as 'hockey' in countries other than America, field hockey is often denounced as a 'girly sport', a predominanly lesbian sport, or as not really hockey. However, none of this is true. It is an olympic sport, and is among the top 5 most played sports in the world.

The Game - The game consists of two teams of 11 (including a goalie), trying to get the ball into the opposite goalcage. There are two 35-minute halves in collegiate and international play, and two 30-minute halves in varsity high school play. Field hockey is known to have alot of fouls, but most are called just to keep the game safe. Many different types of hits are allowed, such as drives, pushes, flicks, scoops, drags, chokes, slaps, and chips.

Equipment - The sticks are flat on one side, which is the only side you may hit the small, hard, plastic ball with. The stick may be composed of wood or of composite material, usually a combination of glassfibre, carbon, and aramide.

Field hockey is a very fun and competitive sport.

THE most awesome sport in the entire world. Honestly. No lesbians on either of my teams, its not that common. 11 players on a side. Have amazing lower body strength due to hardcore conditioning. Bend over often. Play low and are good with their stick skills. Use one side of our sticks which are either wood or composite. Every year there is a festival at either Palm Springs, Ca or West Palm Beach, FL. This is where every college coach goes to watch and recruit. In palm beach, there were 28 full size (100yds long, 65 yds wide) fields on 6 polo fields. It was the best experience ever.
There is also another form of hockey-which is indoor.
Indoor is much better than outdoor. Playing very very low requires lots of leg and butt muscles, leading to a very nice ass that is fondly referred to as a hockey butt. Moving on, Indoor is much cooler. There is also a national tournament at the end of the indoor season...like the outdoor one, but not as fun. There is U12, U14, U16, and U19 for my club team, but also U21 and i think there are younger than 12 teams too.
Field hockey is a huge sport in Europe, but it is gaining popularity in America too. Only the cool kids play field hockey. It takes more finesse to play hockey than it does to play the retarded sport of lacrosse.

Jeff- Dude, Do you realize that every girlfriend you have had is a field hockey player?

Spencer- Well, If you wore a skirt and had an amazing ass and leaned over all the time, I'd do you too

The most amazing sport to ever be created. Consisting of a team of at least 11 or more determined, in shape, atheltic girls (or guys!) and a pretty brave goalkeeper. The forwards, mid-fielders and sometimes defense sprint up and down the field for an extended amount of time. Often referred to as a "Lesbian sport". HAHAHA no. Why don't you try running up and down a field non-stop for almost an hour? Excatly. Most people can't. Field Hockey is physically demanding and full of skill players devolp over weeks and weeks at a time. Goalies have hard plastic balls flying at them at 60 MPH. Field players are getting whacked by sticks (wood or composite). and are constantly getting knocked over, tripped, and hit. But let me be the first to say, NOTHING is better than hearing the ball whack into the back of the goal. So next time you make fun of Field Hockey, go try it and see how you do.

Marvin: "Hey did you see the field hockey game yesterday?"

Harry: "Yeah I have no clue how those girls run for 50 minutes straight."

Marvin: "Right? It seems pretty hard. I respect th

The most grueling, intense, rigorous sport ever created. 11 girls fight as hard as they can, run as fast as they can, and get past as many defenders as they can before driving the orange ball into the cage (aka- goal). It is extremely demanding, yet extremely rewarding.

rage in the cage

FIELD HOCKEY....

Hockey has long been the domain of Asian countries. European and North American countries have never been too keen on that sport, although some European countries do indulge in the game. For those of you who do not know much about the game, it comprises two teams of eleven players each. There is a small hard disc known as the puck, which the players have to manoeuvre into the opponent's goal post using their hockey sticks. The goalkeeper has to try his best to save the goal and thereby prevent the opponent team from scoring. Each team has the objective of making the maximum number of goals within a specified time limit, which is the duration of the match.

Kinds of HOCKEY:

Hockey today, is just not restricted to the regular game played on a grassy field or an artificial tuft. There are various kinds or versions of hockey that people play these days. The other types of hockey, which are quite popular, are.

The best sport ever created. Played mostly by girls. Guys wish they could play. The uniforms are awesome most of the time. The goalies are courageous and some look like they are on steroids. The stick actually doesn't look like a hockey stick that much it is shaped like a "J". The balls are big (That's what she said) and solid. It is easy to get injured but the players are so damn fine that they don't care.
