I like soccer and field hockey. How about you?
I enjoy *watching* ;-) We probably enjoyed it most while living in Europe. With the origins of field hockey in particular back in England, France, Scotland and the Netherlands -- it makes sense it just had more of a focus (and audience!)
Neat! Field Hockey is indeed popular in those places..Is it less popular where you live now?
Yes, here in the South it's football! That's why I've loved living in different places. Though lacrosse is similar, I suppose, in its use of sticks (of a sort) to hit a ball...
Neat. Yeah I don't see many people playing field hockey in the U.S. I know some people that play lacrosse though!
It's gotten pretty popular. Do you associate field hockey more with women or men? I wonder if it's the same as lacrosse, where body contact is not allowed (although stick contact is...)
I would associate it more with women, but men play it a lot too!
Either way, it takes a lot of skill to use that lacrosse stick to carry, pass, catch, and shoot the ball!
