Why You Shouldn't Rely On Perfect Passes in Field Hockey

April 03, 20252 min read

Do you get frustrated when your teammates don’t deliver the perfect pass?

In field hockey, many players hesitate, expecting a perfectly placed pass before making their move.

But the reality is: perfect passes are rare.

The game is fast, unpredictable and it can get messy at times.

Great hockey players don’t rely on perfect passes, they adapt, react and make the most of every pass, whether it’s bouncing, behind them or coming at an awkward angle.

Your ability to adjust and control any pass, no matter the quality, is what sets you apart.

Instead of blaming a bad pass, ask yourself:

How quickly can I adapt and keep the play moving?

Check out the video below which shows an example of a poor pass that leads to a game changing goal during a Masters World Cup game.

Why You Shouldn't Rely On Perfect Passes in Field Hockey

Are you a masters hockey player wanting to play your best in national or international tournaments?

I've put together a NEW In-Depth Resource for Masters Hockey Players (made up of 10 short modules), where I dive deep into "The 7 Performance Multipliers that separated GOOD players from GREAT players during the 2024 Masters World Cups" where I took part both as a player (where we won Gold in Cape Town) and also as a coach (where we won Bronze in Auckland).

In this training I'll show you real life practical examples from the Masters World Cups and how to apply them to help you stand out and perform at your absolute peak. These insights are game changing for masters hockey players striving to perform their best in national and international tournaments.
