The Rules of Indoor Hockey (FIH 2020) - EXPLAINED!

Ninh explains the Rules of Indoor Hockey - a variation of hockey (or field hockey) that’s played indoors in arenas. This was originally a training tool for hockey players in the winter months, but has now become a sport in its own right.

FOOTNOTES: - "The footage of a 'Penalty Shot' is actually from a Penalty Shootout". I am aware of this, but after spending ages trying to find footage of a penalty shot, I didn't. So I used that footage instead. - What sports would you like to see explained next? Comment below!

[@tfn212]

You ever said you have upcoming video about flag football, so I glad if you upload it soon

[@chesterdonnelly1212]

Ninh Ly Fast5 netball. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast5_netball

[@alonzojones6995]

Dodgeball

[@galoglaich3281]

kokboru its a central asian game on horseback game thats being standardised and is very popular in its region

[@dejanlukic7764]

Padel, Tchoukball, British Baseball, Fistball, Rink Bandy, Pickleball, Ringette, Kickball, Rogaining... I hope this is not too much? Just in case you are running out of ideas.

[@rileykazama3145]

I play floor hockey in Special Olympics last year my team won a gold medal floor hockey or any type of hockey is very hard but it's one of my favorite sports alongside professional wrestling

[@NinhLyUK]

Cool.

[@visas_y_viajes]

Floorball is not hockey.

[@Thefrogbread]

i like floorball much

[@WillMannay]

Oh how long I've waited for another variation of hockey rules on this channel

[@NinhLyUK]

You got it.

[@justinwagenaar]

Finally one of the few sports which was missing on your channel! Great video!

[@MoreAwsomeMetal]

Few ??? There are still hundreds of sports he hasn't covered yet (some of them actually beeing quite famous around the world)!

[@NinhLyUK]

I'm getting there!

[@geopoliticalgamer5982]

Thank you I’ve been watching this lately, and I had no idea what was going on

[@NinhLyUK]

Glad I could help

[@matthewdooley9046]

Great video as always ninh! Little sidenote I was stoked when ireland reached the hockey world cup final. No one expected that. Probably the greatest moment in irish sport (yes better than Italia 90)

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes, exactly! Thanks.

[@sgc2009]

Thanks so much this helps me to understand the game SO much more!

[@dejanlukic7764]

My favorite sport. Thanks Ninh.

[@NinhLyUK]

Any time!

[@sohamdutta5315]

Indoor Cricket next please!

[@NinhLyUK]

I'll consider it.

[@44song]

Highly appreciated for using women's games for most parts of this video. I did enjoy a lot. Once again you have impressed me with another new video. By the way, I had terrible swing on the field back in the days of playing hockey. I was a good pusher though. I think I could play better had indoor hockey been available to me back then.

[@NinhLyUK]

Yeah, you probably would have done well in this game! Thanks.

[@simonmeyer6942]

Indoor cricket might also be an interesting idea🙂. Anyway great video ninh!

[@Emper0rH0rde]

That's a thing kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnu5lml3oJ1ooas

[@sohamdutta5315]

Even I also want a Indoor Cricket

[@NinhLyUK]

I'll consider it.

[@alonzojones6995]

both field hockey and this are awesome sports

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes, agreed

[@GamePro0012]

The fact that you can only use one side of the stick in field hockey never ceases to amaze me. Typing this comment on a different browser because my other one isn't loading the bloody comments!

[@NinhLyUK]

It's traditionally how hockey sticks were designed ... the heavier side adds power to your hits.

[@louiseugeniojr.3530]

A very interesting video of I do say so myself.

[@NinhLyUK]

Many thanks!

[@frankym69]

So basically, mini field hockey. Pretty cool concept.

[@Paliakoudis]

Hey, so, did you manage to find a way to put the Beckham 7 patch on your Man Utd shirt from last year?

[@NinhLyUK]

I just bought a convincing fake jersey with the numbers already on for the same price as United were going to print the letters. Seems kinda silly.

[@Natasha-wc7uf]

Can you do a video on broomball?

[@NinhLyUK]

I'll consider it.

[@braydenbrown379]

Awesome another hockey video I wonder why you can’t use both sides of the stick, I don’t get it... Why cant a field/indoor hockey stick be double sided? Awesome video ninh :)

[@NinhLyUK]

That's traditionally how hockey sticks work - the weighted side adds power to a strike.

[@braydenbrown379]

oh I guess that makes sense

[@ThatBrendonGuy]

I was a terrible field hockey player but when it came to indoor, I was, well, a bit less terrible. Although I wasn't sure if you were gonna show that it was also a men's sport, thanks for the few seconds at the end haha

[@NinhLyUK]

I think most sports I've shown are implied to be unisex.

[@DavidsSkillsandStuff]

This is cool. I always thought that indoor hockey is just hockey with rollerblades and a ball. That what my friends always said is indoor hockey when the drinks don't have ice on them in the summer.

[@NinhLyUK]

I think that describes inline hockey.

[@DeadTalkLive]

Very interesting video 👍! As a fellow KZbinr, I am always looking for fresh ideas! Great Job!

[@NinhLyUK]

Thanks bro! Check out my channel for more!

[@DeadTalkLive]

@@NinhLyUK You're Welcome!

[@joshuaschoeman8580]

Thanks

[@Gassebol]

In Sweden they are crazy about floorball. But this seems to be much more fun.

[@alex.ann_der]

So there are four variations of hockey, right ? Grass, indoor, in rollers and ice hockey. My country is at the top of female outdoor hockey, the team known as Las Leonas. Luciana Aymar is considered the Messi of hockey

[@NinhLyUK]

More than that. Floorball, Rink, Bandy etc.

[@alex.ann_der]

@@NinhLyUK Can I see some of them in your videos ?

[@matthewlo7868]

Something tells me you’re gonna have to do a “what is hockey” video kinda like what you did with your “what is football” video... I’m just saying!!

[@tfn212]

Ireland: We have a real 'hockey' (mentioned *hurling*)

[@NinhLyUK]

I'd get the same unimaginative response from North Americans ... "it's not called ice hockey, it's just called hockey" .... duuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[@jacklong1844]

Just football with sticks

[@dovidgoldstein2725]

Please make a video on trap and skeet

[@NinhLyUK]

I'll consider it.

[@ai9684]

My back hurts from watching

[@NinhLyUK]

Mine too.

[@FidoArtz]

didn't know they had an indoor version of field hockey, it sounds and looks very interesting. which comes to mind has there been an interest to cover the rules and variations of paintball?

[@NinhLyUK]

I'll consider it.

[@adeteacha8903]

May you please 🙏 😇 do a video on curling?

[@matthewlo7868]

Ade Teacha he already did one.. Here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipvblI2el7uGjLM

[@NinhLyUK]

What @Matthew Lo said.

[@matthewlo7868]

Ninh Ly Thanks, Bruv.

[@CompletelyInadequate]

why dont they use longer sticks so they dont have to bend down so much???

[@aj1604]

Hey Ninh can you explain the rules of 10s rugby?

[@mr.hakimi07]

There’s just a little different between 7's and 10's. No need to explain about 10's!

[@tfn212]

@@mr.hakimi07 Is the difference only number of players of each team?

[@NinhLyUK]

The only difference is the number

[@mr.hakimi07]

@@tfn212 both variant (10's and 7's) of rugby union are same. the different are just the numbers of players and time play. 7 players in 7's and 10 players in 10's. 7 minutes per halves in 7's and 10 minutes per halves in 10's. I'm play rugby union amateur at my state. I has experiences on both 7's and 10's too (both of this variant are play when it is off season of standard rugby union).

[@Lilvonthe2nd]

Who named the sport regular hockey played indoors

[@callumstewart7649]

Penalty strokes are taken from the penalty spot. The part of the video showed a running penalty

[@NinhLyUK]

Read the top comment.

[@arimermelstein9167]

Looks like the goalie has a stick. If I remember correctly, in outdoor hockey, the goalie doesn’t have one. Is this right?

[@NinhLyUK]

No, the goalies in both versions have sticks, albeit shorter crozier-shaped sticks. In Bandy and Floorball - goalies don't have sticks

[@Timooooooooooooooo]

Goalie here (both indoor and outdoor). We have a stick in both. While we're allowed to use any part of our body to stop the ball, we're also only allowed to use the flat side of the stick. There are different shapes for goalie sticks, but nowadays most goalies play with the same shapes as infielders. Goalie sticks are still different in weight, balance, strength and bow, but you usually won't be able to really tell visually. I use the same stick indoor and outdoor. Infielders use lighter and thinner sticks indoors. Internationally, goalies also have to use thinner sticks indoors.

[@sentryathlete1768]

Hey Ninh is the olympic canceled?

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes, postponed until next year.

[@sentryathlete1768]

You mean it’s going to be next year?

[@tfn212]

So interesting, seems like futsal but there is hockey, or milder version of ice hockey but with field hockey equipment and there is no ice BTW, I think people who disliked this video are ice hockey hooligans who think this game is very bland and weak compared than ice hockey, but this is my opinion

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes, I agree with both points.

[@CallumAustralia]

U forgot about shooting circles. Please try to make more vids too.

[@oddoperator3524]

We play this in our school

[@NinhLyUK]

Cool.

[@snowcrabb]

as an ice hockey player it seems so uncomfortable to only use one side of the stick i dont think i could do that

[@NinhLyUK]

You get used to it.

[@GoBlues767]

Soon enough someone is going to invent trampoline hockey

[@NinhLyUK]

How would that even work?

[@mrinangochakraborty5733]

FIH is India's national sport. India is one of the most successful team in FIH

[@zentree9932]

you do esports as they are Olympic sport now

[@tomeknguyen9840]

Is there any team sport where the players don't score goals, points or runs?

[@MoreAwsomeMetal]

Relay races?

[@NinhLyUK]

Racing

[@tehsin13]

Hopefully some people plays indoor rugby somewhere in the world.

[@BigmanDogs]

This is very similar to floorball

[@arjyamanbasu4037]

What about left handed players?

[@SL-jj5ms]

They use the same stick and play on the same side as right handed players. When dribbling most of the turning motion actually comes from the left hand so there is no disadvantage.

[@RyanDonziger]

Ice or roller hockey is inside

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes

[@chesterdonnelly1212]

I've never seen this sport before but my first impression is that it looks like a better spectator sport than field hockey.

[@NinhLyUK]

They're both kinda the same.

[@chesterdonnelly1212]

@@NinhLyUK 2 big differences. 1. It's on a smaller pitch so it's easier to see (same as the difference between ice hockey and bandy). 2. The blue pitch is not such a strong blue. It is noticeably paler. I can't watch field hockey; I find the blue pitches repulsive.

[@kimothemo]

Its the futsal version of field hockey

[@yydd4954]

Hockey is beautiful sport My country India doesn't play in indoor but are most successful alongside Pakistan in outdoor

[@lewis8726]

How many types of hockey are there 😂😂 👏

[@NinhLyUK]

More than I've described.

[@raghuveer5282]

This is essentially a hockey on a handball court.

[@luvvrayxx]

Pov: Your PE teacher send yall this

[@AshTrizey]

Would be more exciting if you could hit or flick the ball from anywhere and didn't just have to play on the ground. Just put up plexiglass like the NHL.

[@citychris3215]

Please do that American handball video!

[@NinhLyUK]

I'll consider it.

[@ratedpending]

ATTENTION: THIS IS NOT A DRILL, NINH IS EXPLAINING YET ANOTHER SPORT. I REPEAT, THIS IS NOT A DRILL. IMMEDIATELY RETURN HOME AND OPEN UP KZbin.COM TO WITNESS THE EVENT.

[@NinhLyUK]

Ummm, yes thanks!

[@foshastajones]

Isn't nearly all hockey played indoors these days?

[@NinhLyUK]

No

[@sergiocarranza2548]

Rules of team roping Bruh please

[@NinhLyUK]

What is that?

[@sergiocarranza2548]

Ninh Ly dude like look on google or something so it’s basically a sport with horses and basically you have to catch like a cow with a rope or lassoe whatever you wanna call it

[@SwoleakhulTheBlind]

Why does the rule of only dribbling with one side of the stick exist??? Or only being able to tackle with one person? It’s no surprise these sports never reach mainstream adoption with such convoluted rules.

[@eloisey6926]

Just like a cricket bat - only one side is meant for hitting the ball. It's just a different skill set. And it would really slow the game down if more than one person could tackle at once.

[@Emper0rH0rde]

My back hurt watching this

[@NinhLyUK]

So does mine.

[@BullShitThat]

Ice hockey... Roller hockey... Lacrosse... Field hockey... Indoor hockey?!?!? Why aren't their sticks longer?

[@NinhLyUK]

Because they don't need them to be.

[@BullShitThat]

@@NinhLyUK Then why the need to constantly be bending over then?

[@oliviaharris6047]

Penalty shot is not quite right. The explanation was right but you used a clip for a shootout.

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes. Didn't have the relevant footage but the point stands.

[@ryangryglewicz4274]

First

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes

[@argo1879]

So basically just take all the fun out of real hockey

[@mreverythingme5567]

As an info hockey player myself, WHERES DRILLING?????

[@NinhLyUK]

Is that a rule on how to play the game?

[@Hockey_G]

Professional teams? In Holland even the top teams are at best semi professionals. That is not counting the scores of amateur teams at much lower levels. A goal keeper is not obliged, you can also choose to play witt six field players and no goalie. Games do not last 4x 10 minutes, but 2x 20 minutes.

[@justinwagenaar]

No since 2020 it is 4x10 minutes

[@NinhLyUK]

It's now 4 x 10 minutes. I got it right.

[@Hockey_G]

@@NinhLyUK I guess we need to call the KNHB. Their rulebook still says 2x 20 minutes. www.knhb.nl/kenniscentrum/scheidsrechters/alles-over-de-spelregels
