Sameee!!

Callum Stewart do people usually score from that white line where they were shooting first? Or did Matthew and Brady just make it look easy? Don’t play so jus wondering

@@Logancruickshank the white line they were using first is like the penalty spot in soccer/football

@@Logancruickshank the probability of scoring from a penalty like that is pretty high but penalties like that are rarely given

Doesn’t it get tiring to bend over your back like that so much? I also find the sticks so awkward

David Selby negative - if that was the case the leafs would have a couple of grit grinders on the roster - instead we have a group of lazy overpaid jerks ....

I didn’t understand that joke, what’s it referring to?

k but why do they call him walt?

@@emilystry3718 Because you call that man whatever he tells you to.

Well at least you got adopted...

Weird how families do that

Taryn looks alot like her mom tho, you can see it in the eyes.

It’s because the sport was originally played on grass, so the ball would bounce a lot more and the best position to stop it in was by holding it in front of your legs as if you were playing cricket. As a result the stick was shorter to make that more comfortable, and also because longer sticks didn’t work so well on grass. When it transitioned to astro-turf, they didn’t change the stick length.

@@lir.j6245 is it only played on Turf now? The whole thing does not seem well thought out. If grass is so tall you need short stick and bend over just to play maybe is not worth it.

@@MbisonBalrog it’s only played on turf now. It was played on grass like 100 so years ago. The end of the stick was a bit wider back then too, looked a bit more like an ice hockey stick blade with one side rounded. It was also played in the winter months by cricket players in the off-season, and cricket pitches tends to have short grass and more even ground, so it bounced because of the properties of the soil, you could still play though. Field hockey is really popular across the globe, so yeah I would say it’s worth playing. It’s good fun, you just have to get a stance so that when your playing your back doesn’t hurt. I recommend you check out the sport of Bandy, it’s a precursor to ice hockey and they have short sticks like they do in field hockey, with similar rules +off-side. Looks like fun too. Played a lot in Scandinavia, and a few NHL players played it back home.

Frist game they come out with Field hockey sticks

But Matt didn’t even win this

It’s practise for him to preform better in the playoffs

LMAOOO that's what I was thinking 😂😂😂😂

Mitch91PyroisB0SS it's just for fun but I wouldn't expect an Oilers fan to have that in their life
