Participa dos Jogos Olímpicos desde 1908 nos jogos de Londres, está no Brasil desde 1880, chegou 15 anos antes do futebol, mesmo assim é pouco conhecido no país, trazido por ingleses o Hóquei tem encontrado dificuldades para a sua divulgação restringindo assim o seu desenvolvimento apenas para algumas localidades estaduais, tanto que no campeonato brasileiro de Hóquei há somente nove equipes, onde parte dos jogadores desses times realizam palestras, workshops, oficinas e aulas sobre a modalidade em universidades, espaços públicos e escolas. Uma dessas equipes encontra-se na cidade de São José dos Campos onde a mesma também desenvolve um trabalho de divulgação em algumas escolas da cidade. Os alunos das escolas mostram grande interesse por algo que é novo, por experiências novas onde todos se igualam a um nível de conhecimento da modalidade que por sua vez faz ocorrer à integração e inclusão de todos. As regras, os equipamentos, a forma de como é jogado o Hóquei, são algumas informações da grande história até os dias atuais dessa modalidade. Palavras-chaves: História do Hóquei sobre a grama.

O Hóquei iniciou sua participação nas Olimpíadas em 1908 com o time masculino, e no feminino em 1980. No ano de 1924 a primeira Federação Internacional de Hóquei (FIH) foi formada (FIGUEIREDO, 2003; COLLI, 2004; TURCO, 2006). Muitos países aderiram a modalidade, alguns a tornaram como a modalidade nacional, como é o futebol para o Brasil. Austrália, Nigéria e Argentina até mesmo o Brasil fazem parte de um grupo de seleções no qual se totaliza em 127 países registrados na FIH. No Brasil a modalidade chegou antes mesmo que o futebol em 1880, porém somente em 2001 formou uma instituição que cuidasse da modalidade chamada de Associação Brasileira de Hóquei (ABH), que por sua vez uniu-se com o Comitê Olímpico Brasileiro para formar a Confederação Brasileira de Hóquei sobre a Grama e Indoor (CBHG) que é formada por algumas Federações estaduais. Em 2007 o Brasil sediou o Pan-americano, com isso o país construiu no Rio de Janeiro um campo oficial de Hóquei na cidade de Deodoro, a partir daí todos os jogos oficiais são realizados neste campo (TURCO, 2006; <olimpíadas.uol.com.br/2008>; CBHG, 2012). O Hóquei está sendo difundido em várias cidades sediadas por cada federação de seu devido estado, uma delas é a cidade de São José dos Campos onde existe uma equipe que faz parte da Federação de Hóquei do Estado de São Paulo cujo nome é Matias Hockey Club formada em 2009, idealizado por Carlos Tear um argentino empresário que já residiu na cidade de São José dos campos (O VALE, 2012; UNIVAP, 2011). A prática do Hóquei em algumas escolas do país esta crescendo com o passar do tempo. Na atualidade

    Where the English Refused to Tread: India’s Role in Establishing Hockey as an Olympic Summer Sport (Final report submitted to the IOC Olympic Studies Centre in the framework of the 2015 PhD Students Research Grant Programme) By Nikhilesh Bhattacharya PhD Fellow, School of Cultural Texts and Records, Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India Abstract: The evolution of field hockey as an Olympic Summer Sport in the inter-war years was marked by two contrasting developments. England, the home of modern hockey, made a solitary appearance in Antwerp in 1920 (where the matches were held in early September) and won gold but thereafter refused to play while the other constituent parts of Great Britain stayed away from Olympic hockey altogether. On the other hand, India, then a colony under British rule, aligned with countries on the Continent and joined the newly founded International hockey federation (FIH) to take part in the 1928 Amsterdam Games and, over the next decade, played a crucial role in keeping hockey within the Olympic fold. My project examines England’s reluctance, and India’s eagerness, in the light of developments that were taking place in the history of hockey, the Olympic Movement and the world at large. This is the first systematic study of the emergence of field hockey as a permanent Olympic Summer Sport (men’s field hockey has been a part of every Olympic Games since 1928) as it covers five archives in two countries, various online databases and a host of secondary sources including official reports, and newspaper and magazine

  • Why Delhi Women Hockey Is in Pathetic Condition?
    Journal of Tourism, Hospitality and Sports www.iiste.org ISSN (Paper) 2312-5187 ISSN (Online) 2312-5179 An International Peer-reviewed Journal Vol.4, 2015 Why Delhi Women Hockey is in Pathetic Condition? Dr. Shubhra Kathuria Assistant Professor, Bharati College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110058 [email protected] Inderpreet Kaur Nanda Assistant Professor, S.G.T.B. Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 [email protected] Abstract Even though many ancient civilization played hockey in different variations, the modern game of field Hockey evolved in the British in the Ninth Century. Hockey was introduced in India by British Army regiments and the game soon found favor among native Indians. The first hockey club in India came up in Calcutta in 1885-86 and soon Bombay and Punjab followed suit. Making its Olympic debut at the 1928 Amsterdam Games, Indian Hockey team cruised home to its first Olympic gold without conceding a single goal. The hallmark of this ruthless domination was the wizardry of Indian Hockey legend Dhyan Chand who mesmerized the Amsterdam crowd with his dazzling skills. Viewing on the status of women in sports historical evidences proves that women have been involved in sports since fourth century B.C. The fight for Women Hockey players to earn respect and acceptance have been hard fought over the past one hundred years. The road of women Hockey has had many ups and down’s but has preserved to the present day and is stronger than it has ever been. The future of women hockey is bright thanks to diligence and hard work of those who kept it all going.
