Write any three basic skills of the hockey game.

Answer 1

The fundamental skills involved in the game of hockey are:

1. Passing: Passing is more frequently used than dribbling. The pass is the heart and soul of the hockey game. It refers to passing the ball from one's control to that of a teammate using any stroke with the goal of gaining ground or beating a defender directly or indirectly.
2. Dribbling: Dribbling is the act of running with the ball while shifting it right and left and maintaining complete control so that it can be passed at any time or change direction to beat a player.
3. Indian dribble: The Indian dribble is a hockey skill that first appeared in the 1956 Summer Olympics. It entails constantly pushing the ball from right to left and then left to right while spinning the hockey stick.
4. Shooting: A shot is any attempt that a player makes to score a goal. Shooting is the most prevalent method of scoring goals.
5. Push: A push pass is frequently the first pass that a hockey player will learn. It is used by everyone from youth players to Olympic athletes. Push passes work best over short controlled distances.
6. Drive: A drive is often used to get the ball to a teammate who is further out on the field or to take a shot on goal. This hit will be made with both hands together at the top of the stick.
