yes they are the same
yes in a way it is, but a field hockey field has a "dome shape" around the goal. and a soccer field's is more like a rectangle.
same as soccer
Generally, they are both the same as far as I know.
# Field Hockey # Indoor Hockey - Field Hockey Indoors # Mini Hockey - Field Hockey with a minimum of 5 players on each team including Goalkeeper. # Ice hockey # Inline hockey (Single Bladed Weels) # Roller Hockey (Quad Wheels) # Street hockey - (played the same as ice hockey with the same gear (excluding inline skates) but usually on a street or other paved area [not recommended to play in traffic]) # Unicycle Hockey # UniHoc - Played with plastic sticks (both sides flat) and plastic hollow ball as an introduction to hockey also known as FloorBall or Floor Hockey # Bandy - in some ways field hockey on ice # PowerHockey - a form of hockey played in electric wheelchairs for disabled people # Underwater Hockey # Shinty - Scottish from of hockey played in the highlands # Hurling or Camogie - there are some resembalance to Hockey
The most common types of hockey are ice hockey, field hockey, floor hockey, and street hockey. With the exception of field hockey, all of these types of hockey generally follow the same rules.
Hockey and soccer are typically categorised as winter sports, so for the most part, yes; they are in the same season. However due to the difference in season between Nortern and Southern countries, both may be played during winter and summer.
I will tell you the ones i know of. Mini hockey is only played in a half of a hockey field, or even smaller, and there are 8 that play. Field hockey is played full field (the whole hockey field) and you have 11 players that play (including the goalkeeper). They are both similar in that they both play with hockey sticks and they are still a type of hockey. The same rules apply in both.
they are related because there is field lacrosse and field hockey which are both played on fields. The object of the game is the same score the most goals by the end of the game to win. In both sports there is body checking.
In no sport does any person tend towards anything regarding sexual orientation. Field hockey is the same; men and women of all orientations play it in a roughly proportionate mix. I am a man who plays field hockey. I am not gay. I know many other men who also play field hockey. To my knowledge all are either definitely heterosexual or have not, either implicitly or explicitly, identified themselves as gay.
I have the same question! I think you should check with your coach before you make your decision.
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.
For women's field hockey, attire is: a jersey with a large number on the back, typically a skirt (old fashioned are usually pleated however they aren't anymore), and shinpads with socks over top. For males it is the same however they wear shorts.
