September 14, 2025 – National Field Hockey Day Observing with a few laws

Today is the National Field Hockey Day.

It is a day when people go to social media and go to games, all of whom want to grow the game.

We have contributed to grow the game with this site, which has changed from functions and watches to a daily blog and a statistical database.

Everywhere, however, this field hockey site is completely about telling stories. Our stories were about family, individual and team spending and the power of good coaching.

The stories were led by a number of scenarios that we continue to view in terms of gameplay. We call them ‘laws’, in the scientific sense, where we try to describe a fundamental and consistent pattern or regularity in the game of Veldhockey. These laws summarize the collection of observations or experimental results and explains what will happen, but sometimes why it happens.

Our first two laws come from observations from our time in daily space, who collaborate with Jim Davis, the late field hockey writer of the Trentonian (NJ).


The first law of Jim Davis-EN a team wipes the season series of another team, the third time the two teams meet (in a season in the season or after the season), it is almost impossible for that team to make a clean sweep because the team that makes the first two victories is superior on the other side

The Jim Davis Second Law – “There is no replacement for experience.” This means that a team loaded by senior is much more likely than one with first -year students and second -year students, regardless of the skill level.

The third law of Jim Davis-Jim always wanted to emphasize the hard-working player, not necessarily the player who could “let the ball sing” in his language.


These laws are reinforced by ten more maxima that we have complied with over the years, as follows:


Topofthecirle.com first law – “There is a reason why games are not played on paper.” Players in Veldhockey teams always play outside, or under their expected possibilities, making Veldhockey a very difficult sport to predict. We sometimes call it the “Walter Mitty” rule.

Topofthecirle.com second law – “The easiest way to improve your game is not to make the same mistake again and again.”

TopoftHeCircle.com Third law – there are different roles in the sport that, if violated, form an imbalance in the order: “Players play. Coaches coach. Officating officials. Spectators.

Topofthecirle.com fourth law – While games are won on the field, games can be lost so often due to the decisions that coaches make when choosing their teams.

Topofthecirle.com Fifth law – a goal scored in the first five minutes or the last five minutes in a half counts double because of the psychological boost for the team that scores it, as well as the negative effect on the team that gives it.

Topofthecircle.com Sixth law – a certain way to measure the high level of competition within a competition or conference is to observe how many incidents you have not seen before, or how often the referees have to consult the Rulebook.

Topofthecircle.com seventh law – In tournament games, the most meaningful parts of the game are the first half of the last 15 minutes, when players just start to realize that every pass or movement can lead to the end of the season.

Topofthecle.com eighth law – In the course of a season, violations are often more advanced than defenses in the beginning, but in the season defenses and especially keepers can have a big effect on the results of competitions.

Topofthecirle.com Ninth Law-a player who makes an important defensive stop in a game is often the person who leaves the game-winning goal in regulations or overtime.

TopoftHeCircle.com Tenth Law goalies that often play a limited role in high-level teams with major violations will improve to a high level by bringing the best shot attempts from teamies every day in practice.


This site has also developed a four -part law that we seem to see on games that we live blog for you live:


Totc’s law – in every game that is bent live by Topofthecircle.comTwo of the following four will happen:

The lead will change somewhere after the center of the second half;

The expression “I can’t believe what I’m witnessed here” will be used;

Someone will do something so outrageously good that the blog post will be revised long after the game is over, so that the words can be found to describe the incident;

The game will enter overtime (or there is quite close).

I hope that you all have a great national field hockey day and that the greatness applies this week, one that culminates later this week in the National High School Invitational. We have a multipart example of this 64 game smorgas board.
