Question
What are the differences between a short corner and a long corner in hockey?
Solution
Short corner: In field hockey, a penalty corner, sometimes known as a short corner. It is a penalty given against the defending team. It is predominantly awarded for a defensive infringement in the penalty circle or for a deliberate infringement within the defensive 23-metre area. They are eagerly sought by attacking players and provide an excellent opportunity to score. There are particular rules for that only apply at penalty corners and players develop specialist skills, such as the drag flick, for this particular phase in the game.
Long corner: A long corner is awarded if a defender accidentally puts the ball over the back line. Long corners are taken approximately 20m back from the goal line and in-line with the point at which the ball crossed the goal line and cannot be hit directly into the circle.
