How many players are on a hockey team?

Answer 1

Field hockey:A team may have up to 16 players, of which 11 may be on the pitch at any time.

There is no discrimination between players in different positions.

Ice Hockey:

NHL teams may list up to twenty two (22) players on their official rosters.

The standard roster line-up consists of twelve (12) forwards, eight (8) defensemen and two (2) goaltenders.

Street, Floor and In-Line Hockey:Depending on the governing league, teams in these categories normally list between sixteen to twenty (16 - 20) players on their rosters.

(positions vary by number of players per roster.)

Answer 2

It depends on which variant, the rulebase used and how formal the game is, but at least 4 players are needed on each side to make it interesting; 6 is the normal minimum for an official match of both indoor and Ice Hockey, and some forms of Field Hockey; 7 or 8 is a standard minimum for most field hockey grades; 11 is the usual for field hockey; teams can have up to 16 for field hockey and 20 for ice hockey.
Normally, a maximum of 16 players are allowed for each team, with 11 on the pitch for each side at one time (11 a side). Most leagues require at least 7 or 8 players for a team to avoid requirement of forfeiting.
