What type of shoes do you wear for field hockey?

Answer 1

Depends whether or not you're gonna be playing on turf or an actual field.

If you play on turf you will need turf shoes. You could wear sneakers but you'd be slipping and sliding everywhere. Iv'e heard that cleats are banned from most turf fields because they damage it. If you play on an actual field then you would need cleats. Sneakers work too, but you would also be slipping and sliding everywhere. I would recommend buying some Nike or Adidas soccer cleats or actual Field Hockey brand names like Dita. If you were to buy soccer cleats you would have to watch out because if you get hit in the foot, it won't have much protection. I remember my first year in 7th grade I played with regular sneakers and I was sliding everywhere!
