Generally, they form the "offense" of a team and are most likely to score goals.

On the other hand, soccer is a very fluid game, and at different times, every player may be asked to play defense or "attack." All part of the game.

Forwards are responsible for leading the teams attack on their opponents. Although the entire team is involved in every aspect of the game, the forwards control the attacking third of the field. These players are typically the fastest sprinters on the team.

i do not know about everyone but where i play the forwards play offense. They go up in front of the ball at almost all times, to give the mid-fielders an option to pass too. They usually stay out of the circle when in defense. There are four people on forward in a game of fh. i do not know about everyone but where i play the forwards play offense.

There are 3 forwards in Field Hockey. Left Wing, Centre Forward and Right Wing. Their jobs crucially are to score the goals. Centre forward plays a 'high game', meaning they rarely cross the defending side of the half way line. They should be there for any of the midfields to hit the ball to and in this situation they must take the ball up the remainder of the pitch to score a goal, they may pass to either wing.

The jobs of the wings are to receive the ball from a 'hit-out' and take the ball the whole pitch if possible. The wings should be fit, quick and generally have the most skill on the team.
