the sweeper stays back in defence and moves from either side of the field to where ever the ball goes and tries to stop the opposing team from getting to the goal and scoring.
In my view it is Luciana Aymar. She is the Diego Maradona of field hockey.
The zamboni, or the zamboni driver.
The sweeper is a deep defensive position; basically, they are the last line of defence besides the goalkeeper. They normally never leave their own 23-metre area, and are there to clear the ball away from the goal or goalkeeper at any time. They are often the strongest defender on the team, and sweeper is almost a specialist role.
On the field (best kind), the ice, gym floor, or pavement.
In field hockey, there are 11 players on each team. Usuallly that includes, 3 defenders, a sweeper, two wings, three midfielders, one centre forward and a goal keeper
Dhyan Chand is by far the best field hockey player th@ ever was or will be.
There are a lot of good field hockey countries but the best for men are probably the Netherlands, Germany and Australia and the best for women are probably Argentina, the Netherlands and Australia.
The very best field hockey player is Tourn de Nooijer, the Dutch Captain.
ARGENTINA!
