Book excerpt: Excerpt from Learning to Play Field Hockey Field Hockey is played in Great Britain by both men and women, but not in mixed teams, nor in mixed competition. In the United States its activities are confined principally to girls colleges and schools. Nearly all of the American women's institutions of learning devote much time to the game. Interest in it is spreading to the high schools, when the latter have a sufficient playing area, either on the school ground or in parks. In Philadelphia, for instance, there is an organized league of clubs whose members learned field hockey at college and who keep up their interest in the game much as do the women of Great Britain in "county" and similar teams. In the milder climate of the British Isles it is possible to play hockey from autumn until early summer. In the United States the playing period is confined principally to autumn, although it would be quite easy to hold a supplementary season in spring time. The Ladies Field of London, a weekly periodical, devotes much space to Field Hockey in addition to the great variety of other subjects that specially interest women. It published recently a series of articles on learning to play field hockey, by Mr. Eustace E.White, sports editor. So thoroughly did these treat of the game that the publishers of Spaldings Athletic Library made arrangements with the author and Ladies Field to reproduce them in book form for the benefit of field hockey players in the United States.

Download or read book Field Hockey for Players Coaches and Umpires written by Josephine Townsend Lees and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field Hockey for Players, Coaches, and Umpires About fifty years ago field hockey was a new game to Americans. Since that time it has made a place for itself throughout the country. It is played in junior and senior high schools, private schools, colleges, universities, and organized city and sectional clubs. Hockey enthusiasts from many parts of the United States participate in the yearly national tournaments conducted by the United States Field Hockey Association, and touring teams made up of the best players represent the United States in matches played in foreign countries. Not only because of its enthusiastic leaders and its thorough national and sectional organization but also because of the innate appeal of this fast-moving game, hockey has become the most popular outdoor team sport among American girls and women. Everyone who plays the game acquires a deep personal satisfaction from well-executed strokes and proficiency in her position on the team. A cooperative team spirit and an increased sense of sportsmanship develop in all who participate. The game offers excellent recreational opportunities for young and old, alike. This book is dedicated to those who enjoy the game and who want to learn more about the intricacies of its make-up. Prepared for player, coach, and umpire, this book covers equipment, individual skills, team tactics, and umpiring techniques and integrates the materials to show the relationship of one to the other. With the aid of photographs the authors tell how to execute each stroke and how to use the stroke in game situations. They mention practice procedures to help the player develop skillful stickwork. Then duties of each of the eleven players on offense and defense are discussed. Special attention is given to forward-line tactics in passing, dodging, and shooting for goal; backfield strategy in marking, backing up, and covering; and goaltending maneuvers in the striking circle. The many diagrams show a "perfect" attack or defense response to a stated game situation. These illustrations help a player visualize her function in relation to her teammates and to her opponents and assist a coach in her explanation of player-movements and teamwork on the field. No person can be well versed in field hockey unless she understands the umpire's part in the game. The book, therefore, covers the technique of umpiring in detail, from before-game duties, positioning, and signaling, to the umpire's prerogatives in innumerable game situations. In many ways the field hockey vocabulary is unique. So that the inexperienced and uninitiated will have a ready reference for unfamiliar words and expressions, the book concludes with an extensive glossary of field hockey terms. One of the authors of the book, Betty Shellenberger, posed for the photographs which illustrate hockey techniques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field Hockey: Official Publication of the A. F. H In the autumn of 1901 the game of English Field Hockey was introduced and given a permanent place in the athletics of the American Colleges for women. Among the first were Vassar, Wellesley, Smith, Bryn Mawr and Radcliffe. So much interest and enthusiasm did the game arouse among the students that in one college alone 500 members were enrolled in the first hockey club. Although the game of hockey can be traced back to 1527 in England and 1387 in France it was only in 1875 that the "Men's Hockey Association" was formed and the game was placed on a sound basis. In 1886 the first women's club was started and gradually the game became the favorite winter sport among English women. This was followed in 1895 by the uniting of the various clubs in the "All England Women's Hockey Association," and from that time the game increased by leaps and bounds. "Punch," who is always first to note the swing of fashion, set his hall mark on the game and suddenly mixed hockey matches and ladies' hockey matches became the prevailing craze. While English women now regard it as "The king of games," in the realm of men's and boys' sports, in spite of the existence of foot ball, it is yearly taking a more prominent place. Both men and women play under exactly the same rules and mixed clubs are very popular. Although this hand-book is compiled especially for women, the rules and science of the play are precisely the same as those laid down in the books on men's hockey or mixed hockey. In the United States the game is pre-eminently a fall game and is not suited to the spring months. This unfortunately entails a somewhat short season, but in spite of this drawback interest in hockey is becoming widespread in the leading country clubs, colleges, private and public schools. So popular, for instance, is the game at Bryn Mawr College, that about seventy-five per cent. of the students play it, and each class has three hockey teams which compete in interclass games for the first, second and third team hockey class championship cups. Well does hockey deserve its present popularity and success, for it is a splendid, scientific and healthful game, and, furthermore, from the different work required on different parts of the field, it is adapted to all types of players, increasing in them all mental alertness, vigor and endurance, those necessary factors in a successful life.
