Neston 4s v Alderley Edge 4s

I was looking for a field hockey goalie match pov channel, I came across you, sad to see you stopped posting

[@dan_alderson]

Great video Paul, really helped me with positioning etc. Keep up the good work.

[@Muffinboi4]

What would you do if a winger was running down the baseline and had a striker in the d??? It's happened to me so many times but I still can't figure a way out to counter it

@@Muffinboi4 if he’s got his eyes down and not yet in the position to pass then you can be bold and come out quickly to smother the ball. Comes with risk but is fun. Safer option is stick to your post but be aware of the other attacker, keep an eye on him. Then as soon as ball is passed you know exactly where you need to be. Come out and close down. Get both legguards on front of his stick head or get your pads down and chest in front if he’s going to slap it quickly. Most importantly you need to communicate to your defenders clearly where they need to be to stop him receiving the ball in the first place. Good luck

@@paulshepherd5649 thank you soo much. The season is starting back up soon and we are playing a couple of tough schools that like to do that... Thanks for the help

[@paulshepherd5649]

@@Muffinboi4 remember communication stops more goals than you will with your hands and feet. Stop the ball getting into the D by helping your defenders to intercept passes by moving them left and right. You see the whole game it’s an advantage. I will stand at the edge of the D and talk to the guys constantly to keep them sharp. Be active in the game rather than just a piece of foam on the goal line. Eventually you’ll be making tackles with your stick outside of the D which is a lot of fun

@04:17 - this was removed from the game some years back (before the 4 years ago the video was posted). Comes under section 10, GK Conduct. Not permitted to conduct themselves in a manner dangerous to other players by taking advantage of of the protective equipment. Appreciate this instance did not cause danger, but the umpire guidance back in 2012 or maybe slightly earlier was that GKs could no longer do this. Came under potential danger creation by taking advantage of the kit worn (i.e. without kickers, you wouldn't be punting the ball!)

[@ReverendGuyWallis]

what sport is this? it looks like a soccer field but with hockey sticks. looks fun but hard

[@sophiecolen2058]

It's field hockey, on a normal field hockey field. It's fun, yes haha

[@scoot4443]

Can keepers just drop kick it for a free out?

[@paulshepherd5649]

Scott Hosick at the time yes, but a new rule introduced for 2018/19 made goalkeepers propelling the ball long distances illegal. Depends what level you play at really as to whether the umpire would know this. I believe for 2019/20 season a keeper will be able to use the left hand to move the ball greater distances which I will be attempting to make use of for some fun

[@davidw4970]

@@paulshepherd5649 The rule is 10.2(a) and has no determination on propelling ball over distance great or small. Is all connected to creating danger by taking advantage of the kit worn. 10.2(a) was in it's current form as long ago as 2012 when I first qualified and went onto the circuit. I remember being on tour in Barcelona playing in 2003 and it was allowed then. recall a super goal after an Andy Isaac's clearance went circle to 23m. Hasn't been allowed since at least 2012. A clarification may have come around in your region if umpires were not ruling on the item correctly, but there was no inclusion in the 18-19 rules cycle. The only change relevant in 18-19 was the change for a free hit in the 16 too be taken from anywhere in the 16. Nothing else about free hits was changed. removal of kicking back with GK privileges was the 18-19 cycle though. Are you thinking of that?
