We are pleased to announce that a further set of video clips has just been uploaded to the FIH Rules of Hockey Video Library.

The new clips are from the Women’s Champions Trophy which took place in Amsterdam (NED) in June 2011. For the first time the clips will have the audio feed from the Umpires’ radios.

Each video has a description of the applicable Rule or Rules.

In the Information provided with each video, the actual wording of the Rule or Rules can be found, together with any relevant guidance.

The interpretation of each incident is included, along with the appropriate slide or slides from the FIH Umpires Briefing for 2011. In the time-line for each video the ‘key moments’ are indexed.

Since the launch of the FIH Rules of Hockey Video Library in November 2010 there have been over 72 000 views. With the latest additions, the Library now contains over 100 clips.

The Video Library is a joint project between the FIH Umpiring Committee and the FIH Rules Committee, the objective of which is to provide a collection of video clips which demonstrate the Rules of Hockey and their current interpretations.
