'Pilgrim's Hockey Notes

FIELDING, TRAPPING AND SHOOTING

Further Factors That Contribute To Victory

FIELDING THE BALL cleanly with one hand is an important phase in the game of hockey. It goos for smartness and speed, for a ball so swiftly and securely stopped means seconds saved in a speedy attack.

Trapping the ball with the stick is a second such phase, and in preparing to stop the ball with the stick, the handle should not be gripped tightly. A rigid stick makes for a rebound that may send the ball to one's opponent.

Before touching upon shoot- ing, there is another important duty that is imposed on for- wards, and that is their duty to assist the half-backs, especially when being over-played by their inside for- opponents. The

wards, as in soccer, usually undertake the work in this
