FIELDING, TRAPPING AND SHOOTING
Further Factors That
Contribute To Victory GOLF COURSE IN MACAO
FIELDING THE BALL cloanly with one hand is an important phase in the game of hockey. It goes 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 proparing 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 asist the half-backs, especially when being over-played by their opponents. The inside for- wards, as in soccer, usually undertake the work in this direction, for the wingers and centre-forward must remain up. field in case the ball is sent out. Tackling back means that when the halves are being harassed, too the inside forwards drop reich, Colt to their assistance.
