Fouls
in Hockey!
Stick
Tackle:
You
can’t hit or hook your opponent’s stick with your stick.
Raise
Stick:
You are
not permitted to raise your stick above your shoulder.
Back
Stick:
You can
not play the ball with your back stick.
Feet:
You may
not use your feet or any other part of your body at any time to
control the ball or gain advantage.
Obstruction:
Unlike
in football, hockey players aren't allowed to shield the ball from
the opposition.
You
must make sure you don't put your stick or any part of your body
between your opponent and the ball.
This
is to make sure all players have an equal chance to gain control of
the ball.
Remember
you will also be penalised if you push or trip your opponent.
