Indoor hockey

Japanese: インドアホッケー(英語表記)indoor hockey
Indoor hockey
Hockey played in indoor arenas. It corresponds to the outdoor hockey called field hockey. It started in Europe around 1955, and championship tournaments have been held in Japan since 1966. Two teams of six players (one goalkeeper) control the ball with a stick and try to score the most points within a certain time. The arena is rectangular with 36-44m sidelines and 18-22m backlines, and the floor is made of wood or linoleum. The game lasts for 15-20 minutes for each half. Unlike field hockey, players are not allowed to hit the ball (hit) except when aiming for the goal, and players are allowed to push the ball out with the stick (push) or lightly scoop the ball by putting the stick under it (scoop).

室内競技場で行なうホッケー。屋外で行なうホッケーをフィールドホッケー (→ホッケー ) と呼ぶのに対応する。 1955年頃ヨーロッパで始まり,日本では 1966年から選手権大会が開かれた。1チーム6人 (ゴールキーパー1人) 構成の2チームの選手がスティックでボールを操作し相手ゴールに入れ,一定時間内での得点を競う。競技場はサイドライン 36~44m,バックライン 18~22mの長方形をなし,床面は木製あるいはリノリウム製である。試合時間は前・後半各 15~20分間。フィールドホッケーと異なり,ゴールをねらうとき以外はボールを打つ (ヒット) ことが禁じられ,それ以外はスティックを使ってボールを押し出すように転がしたり (プッシュ) ,ボールの下にスティックを入れて軽くすくい上げたり (スクープ) などする。
