What is Indoor Hockey?

Indoor Hockey is a version of hockey which is usually played indoors.   Apart from being played indoors the main difference between indoor hockey and outdoor hockey are:

• there are only five players and one goalkeeper per team
• the playing area is much smaller
• the goals are slightly smaller
• the ball may only be pushed and not hit
• the ball may only be played along the ground except for a shot at goal
• tackles from behind are not allowed 
• indoor hockey courts have side-boards along both side-lines which keep the ball in play

The Game of Indoor Hockey

• Teams consist of 6 players on the court - 5 Field players and 1 Goalkeeper
• Indoor Hockey Positions are 1 Goalkeeper, 2 Defenders, 1 Link and 2 Strikers
• The game is divided into 2 periods of 20 minutes or 18 Minutes
• Players can play with field hockey sticks

 The three (3) basic rules of Indoor Hockey are:

• Players may NOT HIT THE BALL, but only Push or Deflect it
• Players may NOT RAISE THE BALL except when shooting to score a goal
• Players may NOT TACKLE FROM BEHIND
