Each team has 11 players, who use a stick with a hook which forms the head to hit the ball along the ground. The object of the game is to send the ball into the Opponent’s goal wins. The team consists of 16 players. Hockey at any level is a thrilling game enjoyed by players of all ages. The vast majority play the game primarily for social reasons and do not normally have the opportunity for the sort of coaching that could significantly improve their individual skills and overall performance. In truth improvements in technique and fitness can only enhance one’s enjoyment of the game so everyone should take the opportunity to learn a little more of what it is all about. Games are probably as old as man himself. Many writers gave ride to hint about the origins of Hockey, using the writings, paintings and sculptures of the ancients as evidence.
