Olympic Field Hockey is a team sport played on grass or artificial turf, featuring two teams of eleven players each. The objective is to score goals by hitting a small ball into the opponent's net using curved sticks. Matches consist of two halves, typically lasting 35 minutes each, with a short halftime break. Field hockey is a fast-paced game that emphasizes teamwork, strategy, and skill. It is included in the Summer Olympics, where national teams compete for medals. The sport is governed by the International Hockey Federation (FIH), which sets the rules and organizes international competitions.
