What equipment does my child need? 
The player is responsible for stick, mouth guard, shin guards, and protective eyewear (optional). The rules state that girls cannot wear any jewelry including earrings. Earrings may not be taped. 

What type of eye wear is appropriate for your daughter to wear during field hockey season?
No longer required.

What should I look for when purchasing a stick? 

Our recommendation for the size of the field hockey stick is approximately 1 1/2in below your child's hip bone. Most sticks come in 1/2in sizes. Composite sticks are preferable, as they give the child more power and control. 

In the event that your child is not with you when purchasing a stick, please use the following as a guide when choosing the stick size for your child.
