Question
Explain the following term in hockey:
16-yard hit
Solution
A 16-yard hit is a type of free hit awarded for defence when the ball is completely over the backline and the attacking team is the last to touch it in any way. It was taken up to 14.63 m from when the ball crossed the back line. When a penalty stroke has been completed and no goal has been scored, a defender takes a free hit 15 yards in front of the centre of the goal line to restart the game. A free hit occurs when the ball remains stationary. Umpires are not always stringent enough in needing the ball to be stationary, even if just for a little moment, for a free hit, especially if it is taken with a self-pass.
