NO

I myself am a hockey player in fact I play for my national team and I am quite short. When I was younger I was often told I wouldn't make it because I was short but this isn't true. However it does make it harder to get places so you need to learn to be tough on the ball in order to make up for your lack of height. BUT in no way do you have to be tall just eager.

Not really.

For indoor Field Hockey, the goals aren't that tall (About 4 1/2-5 feet)

Outdoor field hockey goals are about 6 1/2-7 feet

For those extremely high shots, you would like to be as tall as possible.

But you can be short and have a big "spring in your jump"
