Page "Field hockey" Paragraph 23

Other rules include ; no foot to ball contact, obstructing other players, high back swing, and no third party.

If a player is dribbling the ball and either loses control and kicks the ball or another player interferes that player is not permitted to gain control and continue dribbling.

The rules do not allow the person who kicked the ball to gain advantage from the kick, so the ball will automatically be passed on to the opposing team.

Conversely, if no advantage is gained from kicking the ball, play should continue.

Players may not obstruct another's chance of hitting the ball in any way.

No shoving / using your body / stick to prevent advancement in the other team.

Penalty for this is the opposing team receives the ball and if the problem continues, the player can be carded.

While a player is taking a free hit or starting a corner the back swing of their hit cannot be too high for this is considered dangerous.

Finally there may not be three players touching the ball at one time.

Two players from opposing teams can battle for the ball, however if another player interferes it is considered third party and the ball automatically goes to the team who only had one player involved in the third party.
