Gloves are a piece of equipment to use in hockey, provided they are suitable for the purpose. The two main glove types are either for protection or grip. Gloves worn for grip often cover the whole of the palm and fingers on both hands in order to give the best hold on a stick in wet conditions. A protective glove is usually worn only on the left hand and helps stop a turf from grazing the hand during a sweep or trap, or from being seriously injured (I have seen a man's finger almost severed by a hockey stick, so they are worth considering).

Does a field hockey player always have to play with the stick in the right hand?
It depends on what kind of glove and why you wear it. If it is a protective glove, most people only wear one on the left hand. If it is a grip glove, you should wear the pair of them. Some like to add another protective glove to the right hand, some like to wear protection on the left and grip on the right and others just don't wear gloves at all. The same goes for goalkeepers, although you would be silly not to wear the 'gloves', as some people call the hand pads. You can also wear undergloves to help with gripping the stick and the pads; again, it is entirely the player's choice.
