@@HudanV0 field hockey is similar to ice hockey in the fact that most players start out young so get used to it. However its nor actually about your back in field hockey your supposed to bend your knees as opposed to your back.
Dude I knew nothing of field hockey until now thanks barber. Great video. I play ice and roller hockey but this shit is super cool! No backhand crazy lol
Great work, this is showing up in some of the (field=real) hockey Discords. Completely hilarious (and accurate): “if you want to play there’s virtually nowhere…” 😂 Thanks for bringing some Canadian flavour out here in these streets!
@jey9 okay…I’m Canadian, my dad is from India… this definitely will hurt your back. It makes sense if you grew up playing you may know a better way to do it. I recognize you can bend your knees, but all that means, is you blow out your knees instead of your back. Again, not for an elite athlete who grew up playing it, but if a regular person wanted to take this up, I don’t think they’d find it very easy
@@pdubcentral your back hurts a lot during first few weeks of training. We used to do 8-10 minute jog in leaning forward position (dribbling position) to get used to it . 5 laps around the field in normal running posture. Small sprints of 3,4,5,6 meters to the cone and back in starting position. Running on 1 feet steps and down 10 times and after few weeks of training you don’t feel any pain and you have a stamina of a horse.
FH is huge in Europe (esp Netherlands, Ger, Belgium), India, Pakistan, Asia, Australia from community to international . Olympic level hockey is very competitive, a large number of nations are good enough to win medals.
@@navinjanardhanan8578 That might be the case but it still isn‘t popular here. It isn‘t played in schools, in the Swiss media it is inexistant (I’ve never seen an article about it in the media) and I just looked up the numbers: It has around 1700 licensed players in around 20 clubs. As a comparison Football/Soccer has almost 300’000 licensed players, Icehockey, Floorball & Volleyball around 30’000 licensed players, Handball around 20‘000 licensed players. All of them have around 250 or more clubs. Football/Soccer and Icehockey are in the media pretty much every day, Handball, Volleyball and Floorball are in the news when there is a big international tournament with Swiss participation or to tell which team became Swiss Champion. Except Ice hockey all of them are played regularly in schools. For field hockey that isn‘t the case.
Floorball, Ice hockey now Field hockey… Is there a kind of hockey you really can‘t play? And there are also places in Europe where Hockey refers to Ice hockey and not to Field hockey. Here in Switzerland for example Field hockey isn‘t really known.
@@sadiqnajwan6214 Like I said: In Europe it heavily depends on the country. There are Countries where Field Hockey is more popular (like for example the Netherlands, Germany, the UK or Spain) and they usually refer to Field Hockey as hockey.

I've been playing for 4-5 years now at regional and national level from U14's-U18's and I have never hit consistency like that, no chance you're an amateur! lol
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do you not kill your back doing this? Like I notice even just shooting with regular hockey sticks in the driveway especially if you’re doing slap shots, hurts my back after a while or is sore the next day. This looks incredibly painful, I don’t understand how you play with such a small stick, if you have any explanation I’d really appreciate it!

Kind of. But you typically don't have that much time to set it up so theyre primarily used on penalty corners (where the D starts in the net, ball is dragged out from the corner and once dragged out the D can rush out and defend). Pure mayhem.
I played indoor field hockey as a kid. It was only one season because we only had enough players for 2 teams. I'll tell you what though, field hockey goalies are insane. They wear less padding than an ice hockey goalie and the ball is just as hard as a puck. And for those of you that would say "yeah but they can't shoot as hard". You're kind of right..... but it's not THAT much of a difference. You should see some of the pros. Some of them can shoot that ball harder than most ice players shoot a puck.
Safety, the back of the stick will raise the ball unintentionally to o easily. FH players don't wear head and face protection on general play, only on comers.
@@PavelBarber Right-handed grip and stance only, it's not like the sport excluded left-handed people. In fact, having a strong left hand can be an advantage because that's the hand that controls the rotation of the stick while dribbling and trapping.
Thanks for your 'don't like it comment', personally I think Baseball, NBA and, what's that game where they play catch, American Catchball, are waste of time, effort and money. Hey we all have our opinion
"Safety concerns and injury prevention were the primary reasons for banning left-handed sticks from IHF-sanctioned competitions. According to officials, left-handed sticks create too much danger on the field when used in competition against right-handed sticks." That sounds awfully stupid to me...
You would still have to play with a right-handed stance, but left-handers have a strength in the fact that the left hand controls the rotation of the stick so being stronger there means your dribbling may be more controlled and nimble. The downside is obviously that you may lose out a bit on hitting power since that's driven more by the right hand.
That keeper is actually quite good with the ball in the air but needs work with his pads on anything low. Just remember field hockey circle is 16 yards so they were probably shooting from about 12 to 13 yards. At around 100km per hour. That's hard work as a keeper!
Nah he’s quite decent tbf it’s more like football(soccer) goalie styles they get way less shots per game but the save % is also a lot lower like might get anywhere from 0-15 shots a game depending on level and save lower act goals
@@GhostAdvance he’s not a world class keeper but u bear in mind that that is a team Canada shooter and ex team Canada like they’re some very good shots so it makes the keeper look worse
*Played Field hockey when I was younger at a competitive summer league level. Cricket > Field Hockey. Obviously even road hockey, is better than field hockey. A no curve stick with no left handed sticks, and no using the back of the stick. Quite prehistoric for the sport of hockey, in general. Haha.*

Agreed!
Same. Im a goalie in the UK who plays field and follows ice. More please! Maybe try playing between the pipes?

I have a question.The sticks are soo short doesnt your back hurts?

Bro it’s sick
Awesome!! We need to get more attention to Field Hockey in Canada and North America.
I played it when I was 16, drifted off into golf then.
This is awesome! I’m a roller hockey player, but I had a stint as a field hockey goalie for my school. Was super fun.
Dude I knew nothing of field hockey until now thanks barber. Great video. I play ice and roller hockey but this shit is super cool! No backhand crazy lol

@@PavelBarber I question why I live here (and Calgary to boot) on the daily, trust

Wow Im so impressed, you really never picked up a hockey stick before? Hitting reverses clean is super hard. legend
Thank you for this lesson my dood

Every shot, gotta love the “ohhhhhhh”
thanks barber for the great video
Bro said no words
Super cool video. Pavel did you ever play competitive ice hockey?
Pav - your reverse stick technique is incredible for someone who doesn’t play regularly 👏👏
I studied the hell out of that lol
i was there a few years back for nationals. amazing turf
you gotta be next level goalie brained to want to deal with that hahaha
You're lucky you didn't bring out the good Teixeira brother 👀
😂😂😂 I did it FOR YOU

You use less back... it’s more strength from your legs as a base rather than your back. Squat more with a straighter back and it’ll hurt less 😌💪🏻
is that drag shot thing basically a wrist shot but in field hockey?
Kind of. But you typically don't have that much time to set it up so theyre primarily used on penalty corners (where the D starts in the net, ball is dragged out from the corner and once dragged out the D can rush out and defend). Pure mayhem.
That goalies good lol
Should have put him in the Sharpshooter!
Kemo
How fast are those balls going?
depends, most drag flicks can reach 120 kph but the fastest ever recorded was about 150 kph i imagine that backhands and normal shots could go faster
awesome
Hockey is Hockey ! love it ! I never llay Feild Hockey
Why are you so good
I love Field hockey
What goal is that?
Hockey has so many types
I mean why not allow using backhand?
you can do backhand shots but just not use the backside. I think it is for safety reasons.
Is that a foldable goal?
Field hockey is played with a ball just like Canada's conventional bandy, the original version of hockey on the ice.
10:24 absolute filth
As a flicker myself that is literally the dream spot 😂
Goalie's first time?
Why would u quit field hockey to move to ice hockey if U played internationaly
I didn't like the sport
Aren't you play this at ice ???

high school goalie???
you should try to be a bandy goalkeeper Cheers from Sweden
Barb you should make a lacrosse video
Maybe one day never played it
Field hockey is cool and all but what's with not being able to use backhand lol alot of these rules are a little weird
Agreed. I'm honestly not really sure. Only righties allowed too.
This looks like a sport designed by government bureaucrats. It has way too much baggage. I wish they’d replace it by ball hockey in the olympiques.
It's for safety reasons iirc
Safety, the back of the stick will raise the ball unintentionally to o easily. FH players don't wear head and face protection on general play, only on comers.

Reverse stick is called a tomahauk
buddy didnt say a word in the vid
oouuuurrhh
please video make about exercise, before the match \ exercise video
i just made my first youtube video its called beating my superdeker record
Dont your back hurt the sticks are so short?
No. 44 years no back problems
Is he deaf or max introvert?
hahaha, no mic on me, but yeah introvert
As a lefty, the start of this video made me sad.
there are plenty of left-handed players
Why? Strong left hand needed for control and tackling
I’ll never understand why they don’t use normal hockey sticks. Those tiny ones seem horrible.
the thing is the tiny ones are normal hockey sticks for field hockey and, to be honest the game wouldn't be playable with ice hockey sticks
Why is barb more consistent than this olympian
Your telling me this "sport" is in the Olympics but roller hockey isn't?
“Sport”??? 🙄
Roller hockey does have world cups
There is team USA hockey for roller
that is because this sport is hugely popular worldwide
I could save more then that goalie but I play ice hockey 🏒 but would try honestly think I have a chance
Im new to ice/inline hockey, I really hate skates, why cant we just play without skates? I don't like the sticks or rules in field hockey

ONLY RIGHTIES 😭😭😭😭 ima lefty so I can’t play??? TVT
Nah it’s better if you are left handed because it’s your left hand that does all the work
As a lefty, is this still a sport? Not for me I guess.
"Safety concerns and injury prevention were the primary reasons for banning left-handed sticks from IHF-sanctioned competitions. According to officials, left-handed sticks create too much danger on the field when used in competition against right-handed sticks."
That sounds awfully stupid to me...

The downside is obviously that you may lose out a bit on hitting power since that's driven more by the right hand.
there are many left handed professional players- i, whilst not a professional, am left handed. it soon comes naturally
I’m a lefty and playing with a right handed stick isn’t a problem, gives you good control at the top of the stick.
Whats wrong with da goalie 😂😂😂
Barby doll
honestly that goalie was trash. but the other dude is 100% still and olympian

Hi you do not celebrate by throwing your stick in the air or other ways as you are likely to be sent off as it is an offence to do so
