How many people make up a field hockey team?

Answer 1

There can be a maximum of 11 players from each team (including the goalie, if there is one) on the field at one time during play; most leagues and competitions also have a minimum of 7 players.

Answer 2

There are usually 24 people on the field during a game of field hockey. They include the eleven players from each team (one of whom is normally a goalkeeper) and the two umpires. This number can change at different times for various reasons: during the halftime break the substitutes may join the others on the field or everyone may go off into a dugout; one player may leave the field for a drink before their sub gets on; and if there is an injury, the coach, manager and first aid team can enter the field to assist the injured players.

Answer 3

11 players on field per team at any given time, but it is permissable to have up to 5 extra players as subsitutes on and off at any time.
