The U.S. Field
Hockey Association (USFHA) works to
promote the growth of field
hockey.
Here is a quote
from a section of their web site that
discusses the history and tradtion of
field hockey.
"Women's hockey
became a fixture on the Olympic program in
Moscow in 1980. Originally considered far
too dangerous for female participation,
field hockey quickly became popular with
women whose previous introduction to sport
included the "socially acceptable" outdoor
activities of croquette and lawn tennis.
With more and more women becoming active
in the sport, the liberating game of field
hockey earned the dubious title as the
only team sport considered proper for
women."
