@heyitsmissalis22 adidas sticks are great for that sort of thing.

i m a golie and its quite scary having a ball at fall speed come at you but you learn to save it as it desnt hurt with lots of padding :d

[heyitsmissalis22]

I'm looking for a new stick. I play division one highschool leval and is looking forward to play in college i was wondering if you know of any good brands that you've had a good expierience with. My position is link ( Mid-field ) and is looking for a medium weight stick , less the 25 for the bow, and about 37 inches. looking for power and exellent control. please comment back thank you.

[ty1977]

wtf. men play field hockey??

[nathy10bro]

@ty1977 yeah no shit, search international matches

[TheYvdW]

@ty1977 You're from the states?

[ty1977]

@TheYvdW no sir, Canada. Looks like a skillful game though. why cant a player shoot left???

[TheYvdW]

@ty1977 You can shoot left, but only with your stick reversed. You may only play the ball with the 'flat' side of your stick and the flat side of your stick is always on your right, there aren't special sticks for left-handers like in ice hockey.

[ty1977]

@TheYvdW what about people who need too shoot left like gretzkey, crosby in ice hockey? and are all the sticks the same size? seems like they always bending down too much? thanks in advance

[TheYvdW]

@ty1977 In field hockey everbody shoots right, but I don't know how much of the field hockey players are actually 'real' right-handers. And yeah, the sticks in field hockey are much shorter. I remember the first time I played it, the next day my back was hurting like hell. But you are supposed to bend your knees instead of bowing forward. With time you get used to it

[KittyKattyYukiLvr]

@ty1977 Sticks are shorter, but aren't all the same size. They are a certain distance in proportion to your body.

[FuryofTheSgt]

@ty1977 of course, what rock have you been living under xD

[ty1977]

@FuryofTheSgt The one where only woman play it and me play real hockey

[ecastropmx]

[subscriberfull22]

now for protection we have to wear shin guards, goggles, and a mouthguard.

[krishcrash]

@subscriberfull22 you have to wear goggles, with us even mouthguards are optional :P

[TheDefender09]

@subscriberfull22 Why would u need goggles? And many people never wear mouthguards.

[managerhockey]
