Photos That Capture Our Sport

While any picture that depicts the sport of field hockey is better than a pointy stick to the eye, a really superb image that gives one a peek at the unexpected, the passion, the humanity, the thrill of the game is a wonderment.

Yuchen Nie takes many of the photographs that grace F H LIFE magazine. He has established a website that shows his trove of past and current field hockey images. At present, Yuchen is taking photographs of the USA Men and Women during the Pan Am Games, in Mexico.

New Forms of Field Hockey Injuries

So, parents of field hockey players were encouraged to buy special safety
goggles, to what end?  In what way do goggle-related injuries justify the term:
"for safety purposes"?

USA FH Players spent $5,000,000.00 on Goggles this Year

Drivers Training

When you got your first car, was it a Rolls Royce or Ferrari ?
Mine wasn't either.  My first car was an old dented VW bug.
The first week I drove the car, another student backed into it.
There was a dent and I was horrified.

Looking back, I was glad to have not had a pretty car, at least while learning.
Bumps, dents, and paint scratches are going to happen.

The same attitude should be used toward field hockey.
Learn with a good, but not awesome stick.  Buy your Porsche after you are

away from other beginners.  They are going to hit your stick.
Bumps, dents, and paint scratches are going to happen.
