Basic Field Hockey Rules



rugby league usa

The basic field hockey rules are simple and straightforward. The objective of field hockey, is to beat the other side. Players may pass the ball to other players or dribble it through their opponents. You must pass, lift, and dribble with the ball using the flat side. Touching the ball with the rounded side of your stick is a foul.

Goalkeepers are allowed to touch the ball using any part of their body.

Goalkeepers cannot touch the ball using their hands or arms. They must not touch the ball with their hands or arms for more than six seconds. This rule is rarely enforced. It's common for goalkeepers to be given more time than they need. The only exception to this rule is when a goalkeeper is deliberately kicked the ball towards his side.

While the ball may be kicked to goalkeepers, they cannot touch the ball with their hands or any other part of their body after the opponent has touched it. They can touch the ball with the foot, if it bounces back at them. If the goalkeeper breaks this rule, the opposing team gets a free indirect kick.

Goalkeepers have to touch the ball using their hands. This is in contrast with the other players who can touch and use all of their bodies to touch the ball. Their exception is when they possess the ball and have six seconds in which to pass it to another teammate.

Only goalkeepers can interfere with other players during a game

Goalkeepers can only interfere with other players during a soccer match if they are putting the goal in danger. The goalkeepers are not allowed to interrupt other players' play for more than six seconds following the release of the ball. The rules of the game are meant to protect goalkeepers.


Goalkeepers are better at handling the ball than outfielders. They are allowed to use their hands to reach for the ball while outfield players are not allowed to use their hands. This advantage is only available within the penalty area of the goalkeeper. Outside of this area, outfield players must follow the handball laws.

If a player is trying to defend a goal, they must stay at least 10 meters from the ball. Goalkeepers are not permitted to pick up the balls after they have been dropped. Because goalkeepers are limited in their ability to pick up the ball during a game, this is why they cannot do so more than once. But goalkeepers may pass the ball to another player by using their hands. The 'pass back' rule has been controversial in the past.

Only goalkeepers may hit the ball on the flat side of the stick.

Goalkeepers however have some special privileges. While other players are restricted to hitting the ball with the flat side of their sticks, goalkeepers can hit the ball with any part of their body. To avoid injury, goalkeepers must also wear protective gear.

Goals are scored when a player hits the ball between the goal posts. This shot may be taken from a distance of up to 16 yards. In order to score a goal, the player must hit the ball with his stick. The goalkeeper will defend the goal line with his stick by infringing on the goal line of another player.

A player must have an opportunity hit the ball with the flat end of his stick to be able to hit it. This is only allowed for goalkeepers. There are some exceptions. To be eligible for a major foul, an attacker player must be at least eight meters away from the goal.
