Best Answer

Field Hockey is a sport in which two opposing teams, of 11 players each, attempt to score goals. They do this by manoeuvring a small hard ball with sticks, and getting into the opponent's goal. More information can be found at the related links.

when ball is hit on your leg (foot) while dribbling or tackling opponent, it is considered as a foul (Foot foul).

opponent can intentionally hit the ball at your leg to get free hit. so you have to be careful while tackling opponent.
