Because it is an entirely different position. It is the only position in hockey that, if you make a mistake, it is recorded on the scoreboard.

How is a field hockey stick made?

Depending on the type of stick: * A wooden base is carved from a strong timber. It is then smoothed off and painted. * Layers of various types of carbon fibre are laid together in a mould with resin. As the resin dries, more layers are added until it reaches the final size. The two halves are then placed together and more fibre and ersin is added around them to bind them. When it is finished, the outside will be smoothed off and the stick painted and capped. * A wooden beam is carved from timber. Layers of composite material (fibres and resin) are then added to create the shape of the stick. The final product is finished off, painted and capped.
