It depends on whether you are playing field, ice or indoor hockey, on what surface, whether the ball/puck is skipping or rolling/sliding and many other things.
The back in hockey defends. They stop the hockey ball from going inside the goal. Just like the goal keeper. But if the backs stop the ball from going to near the D, they are good backs.
In indoor and field hockey, only a player with goalkeeping priveleges may use the feet; any other use will be penalised. In ice hockey, any player may use their skates to stop the ball (or puck as is the case).
