Outdoor Rule Changes
The following (major) changes will be implemented at all levels of the sport in England from the start of the 2019/20 season:
• Removal of Player with Goalkeeper Privileges (PwGKP)
• Amendments to Attacking Free Hits within the 23m
• Defensive Free Hits awarded within the defensive circle
• Amendment to ruling around Attackers entering the circle early at a Penalty Corner
The FIH published the new Rules of Outdoor Hockey in December 2018. All the changes are all marked with a vertical line in the margin of the Rule Book.
