In the field hockey all teams usually played with five forwards, three media, defenders and a goalkeeper. They have evolved gradually other systems that have resulted in a series of more flexible formations with players classified simply as attackers and defenders media. Players have great mobility and adaptability and often exchange their positions depending on the needs.  

The game starts and restarts after the break and each goal with a pass back from the center of the field. All players, except the drawer, placed in their own half of the field. No member of the team not in possession of the ball may be at least 4.57 meters from it.  

The pass can be done to get the ball hitting or pushing and should be directed along the line of midfield or the middle line of defense. The player who draws can not play the ball again until another player, from either team, has touched. After some arrests of the game, it restarted with a bully; for this, one player from each team face to face with the ball between the two places; each player gently hits the ground behind the ball, and then, with the flat side of the stick and over the ball, tapping the opposing three times alternatively, before attempting to play the ball, all in form very fast. The other players must remain at least 4.57 meters from the ball.  

Like all stick and ball games, the goal is to pass the ball to approach the goal and score a goal. In the modern game six major types of passes are used: hit, push, reverse thrust, pat, acucharado and volley; the latter two up the ball in the air. Players can also carry the ball or propel it with the stick as well as opposing players dribble the field; To do the latter, the ball left to right is struck with the stick, in an action that rolled through the countryside, using small twists of the wrists.  

For a goal to be valid the ball must completely cross the finish line between the goalposts, after being hit or deflected by the stick of an attacking player from within the limits of the circle that marks the goal area.  

When a ball goes out of bounds of the field is put back into play by via a hit or a push from the place where it came from . When the ball is sent off the field by the finish line by an attacking player, or if it is by a defending player from a distance equal to or greater than 23 meters, the game resumes with a hit by a defending player from opposite place exactly where he crossed the finish line at a distance of 14.6 meters from the finish line. Opponents must remain at least 4.57 meters from the ball.  

It gives the kick from the goal line to the attacking team when the ball, having last been touched by the defending team within the area of 23 meters, leaves the ground by the finish line. The striking or pushing the ball is situating at a point that is 4.6 meters from the corner flag and defending players can not be less than 4.57 meters from the ball.  

The penalties can be grouped into three types: stroke penalty for serious offenses within the circle defensive; penalty corner to deliberate defensive fouls inside the 23 meters area but outside the circle, and most of the rest of the faults committed in the circle; and free throws for other offenses than defensive committed within the circle and deliberate mistakes made ​​in the area of 23 meters.  

The penalty stroke is pulled from a point opposite the center of the goal from a distance of 6,40 meters. You can only defend the goalkeeper, the other players must stand behind the line of 23 meters. The penalty corner is taken out from the side of the goal chosen by the attacking team, from a point at least 9.14 meters from the nearest goalpost; the ball must be at the finish line and being hit or pushed by an attacker. Advocates should stand with both feet and the stick off the goal line and at least 4.57 meters from the ball. All members of the attacking team must stand behind the line marking the circle and at least 4.57 meters from the ball. Free throws are awarded for more minor offenses, such as lifting the stick too, obstructions, use the wrong end of the stick side, grab the stick of an opponent and offsides.  

The rule of offside states that at the time playing an attacker ball, no other attacker who is within the area of 23 meters, must be ahead of the ball, or must have at least two defenders between his position and the defending team ’s goal. The factor to consider is the player’s position when the pass, not the position is performed when receiving the ball.  

As in other field sports, such as football and rugby, the advantage rule applies.
