Details of Olympics Field Hockey and the Ticket Luck value
Olympics Field Hockey
Hockey is a keep away game of the ball from the other team to score a goal to win is played in two halves of 35 minutes each with a half time of ten minutes. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins. Hockey has several regular and prestigious international tournaments for both men and women. These events include the Olympic Games, the quadrennial Hockey World Cups, the annual Champions Trophies and World Cups for juniors.
The sport was played by civilizations that predate the Ancient Olympic Games by more than 1,000 years. Drawings on ancient Egyptian tombs offer evidence that this was the first of the stick-and-ball sports.
The current form of the game gained popularity throughout the British Empire in the 19th century, especially in the region that includes India and Pakistan. The 2000 Sydney games saw elimination of the offside rule, formally rescinded by the International Hockey Federation in 1998 to foster improved scoring.
Field hockey was introduced at the Summer Olympic Games as men's competition at the 1908 Games in London, with six teams, including four from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Hockey was removed from the Olympics at the 1924 Paris Games due to the lack of an international structure. The International Hockey Federation (FIH, Fédération Internationale de Hockey) was founded in Paris that year as a response to hockey's omission. Men's hockey became a permanent fixture at the next Olympic Games, the 1928 Games in Amsterdam.
There was no bronze medal match for the 1908 Games in London. The 1920 tournament was played in a round-robin format, with no gold medal or bronze medal matches.
Only three teams participated in the 1932 tournament, playing a round-robin format.
The United Team of Germany represented West Germany and East Germany that competed together at the Olympic Games from 1956 to 1964, before each nation sent independent teams from 1968 to 1988. Round Robin format was used in 1984 women's tournament and played in 1980.
The first women's Olympic hockey competition was at the 1980 Moscow Games. Olympic field hockey games were first played on artificial turf at the 1976 Montreal Games.
India has won eight gold medals at the Olympics - all of them in this event. From 1928-56 India won six consecutive gold medals in men's field hockey, winning all 24 Olympic matches it played during that span while outscoring their opponents 178-7.
