Playing Hockey when Pregnant

There is good evidence about the health benefits of aerobic exercise in pregnancy.

However:

  1. England Hockey advises that all hockey players, coaches, umpires and physios are advised to consult with their GP as soon as pregnancy is confirmed to ensure that they are fit to play up to 12 weeks.
  2. That no player, coach, umpire or physio should participate in Hockey beyond 12 weeks of pregnancy.
