  1. Motion Analysis of a Field Hockey Stroke By: Kate Scanlon & Julie Cairone

  2. Equipment Needed: • Field Hockey Stick • Field Hockey Ball • Mouth guard • Goalie (with pads and stick) • Field Hockey Cage • Chin Guards

  3. General Rules of the STROKE • Ball has to be placed on penalty line • Stick cannot make a “tap” sound on the ball; it has to be one fluid motion • Stroker can take as many steps behind the ball as they want but only one follow through step past the penalty line • Cannot go until the whistle is blown or you don’t get the stroke

  4. Objective: get the ball in the cage • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93O9x7KSbho&NR=1

  5. STANCE PHASE • Player stands sideways with stick rested behind ball, with legs slightly bent PRIMARY MOVERS: (isometric) Slight arm extension: triceps brachii, brachialis, brachioradialis, anconeus

  6. PREPARATORY PHASE • Player gets ready to move and stands with both hands on the stick, legs bent, getting ready to transition into the movement phase • PRIMARY MOVERS: (concentric) Knee Flexion: sartorius, semitendinosis, biceps femoris, semimembranosus Arm Extension: Biceps brachii, anconeus Back Flexion: erector spinae, rectus abdominis

  7. MOVEMENT PHASE • Player gets low to use all muscles to power ball • PRIMARY MOVERS: ( concentric) Knee Flexion: sartorius, semitendinosis, biceps femoris, semimembranosus Back Flexion: erector spinae, rectus abdominis Arm Flexion: Biceps brachii, brachialis, brachioradialis Wrist Flexion (R): Flexor Carpi Radialis, Palmaris Longus, Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Wrist Extension (L): Extensor Carpi Ulnaris, Extensor Carpi RadialisBrevis, Extensor Carpi RadialisLongus Lateral Pelvic Rotation: psoas major and minor, gluteus medius, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus

  8. FOLLOW THROUGH PHASE • Player has released ball and is now exaggerating the finish PRIMARY MOVERS: (eccentric) Knee Flexion/ Extension: sartorius, semitendinosis, biceps femoris, semimembranosus; rectus femoris, vastusintermedius, vastuslateralis, vastusmedalis Back Flexion: erector spinae, rectus abdominis Arm Extension: triceps brachii, brachialis, brachioradialis, anconeus Lateral Pelvic Rotation: psoas major and minor, gluteus medius, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus

  9. RECOVERY PHASE • Player regains stance position PRIMARY MOVERS: (eccentric) Knee Extension: rectus femoris, vastusintermedius, vastuslateralis, vastusmedalis Back Extension: erector spinae; iliocostalis, longissimus, spinalis

  10. TIPS! • Be sure to stretch legs, glutes, and back • People underestimate the use of back muscles in this movement and they tend to pull out their back • Bend legs to get more power • Legs are most important muscles to strengthen • Aim for the four corners of the cage when shooting • Injuries are pretty rare with strokes as long as player stretches and warms up properly beforehand
