this depends on the coach. typically the mid runs the most, followed by the strikers (who do get breaks between sprints unlike mids), and finally the defense

Well it depends on the person and the level of the game but on average a midfielder (halfback) in hockey would run about 8-10 km. Sources: Me being a hockey halfback for 4 years and playing regional field hockey where the coach measured our average running distance.
Person 1 Field hockey is just as hard as any sport, it all depends on the amount of dedication you put into it. Person 2 I've played some field hockey and a lot of ice hockey, and I found field hockey much harder. For one thing, it is unfair to those of us who are left shots. Because of the types of sticks in field hockey, we all had to shoot right. Also, a ball on grass is much harder to handle than a puck on ice. I didn't enjoy playing field hockey at all.
In a hockey game, each period typically lasts for 20 minutes.

Shinty - A form of field hockey, but the sticks are allowed to be raised above waist level. This makes shinty a much more dangerous game than normal hockey.
Yes, it's very much in Olympics since 1908; except 1912 and 1924. Women's Field Hockey was included in Olympics in 1980.
No, lacrosse is not the same thing as field hockey. In field hockey you use a stick with a curved base on the ground and hit it to your team mate, or you can dribble it up the field. The goal in field hockey is much bigger than a lacrosse goal. In lacrosse you throw and catch a ball using a stick with a net and you can run with the ball in you stick. Lacrosse is a much faster paced game too. In lacrosse you wear eye protection and a mouth guard, in field hockey you wear shin guards and a mouth guard. Both sports are really fun.
Hockey turfs are wet due to their carpet-like surface. By wetting the fields there is less chance of carpet burns or nasty scrapes occurring when skin scrapes the surface (such as when a player falls or scrapes knuckles). If there is too much water on a hockey field the ball will be slowed down. Therefore there needs to be enough water to reduce injury and not so much water that there are puddles and game play is affected.
its easyy all you have to do is go onto e-bay :)
Some teams play most of the game too much on one side or in the middle of the field. 'Using the width' means to use the entire width of the field, often where only single player is standing, instead of concentrating on a small strip of it.
