Hockey
Description

Hockey is played with two teams of 11 players each on the field of play at any one time. Players use their hooked hockey stick to control, dribble and hit the ball. The team that scores the most goals wins the match. At the completion of each match during pool play, three points will be awarded to the winner; one point will be awarded to each team in the event of a draw; zero points are awarded to the loser. To determine the final standings after the end of one pool competition, teams will play the final competition in the form of single elimination.
