Where on the hockey field is a free hit taken?
A free hit should be taken "close to where the offence occurred". This basically means that the hit happens wherever the foul happened. However, there is much leeway given in terms of what 'close' means; a ten or twenty metre distance will often be allowed if no major advantage is gained from it, particularly for a defensive hit or where no attackers are within a reasonable distance. Further up the field, higher accuracy is desired and enforced, especially when the free hit should be taken within the 23-metre-area or at the five-metre-ring.

Typically, an umpire awards a free hit when a foul like an obstruction occurs outside the striking zone. The umpire may give a free hit to either the offense or defense depending on who creates the foul. More serious penalties like dangerous play or raising field hockey sticks outside the goal require a stricter penalty.
