David Bernier reitera su Apoyo al Hockey Puertorriqueño

En la noche del dia 30 de abril el presidente del COPUR el honorable David Bernier participo en una activida muy concurrida de athletas de Hockey.

En esta actividad reitero su apoyo a este deporte que trabajara para ayudarnos en todo lo que tenga a su alcanze. Expreso que el exito de la federacion en esta ciclo deportivo sera su exito tambien y el fracaso de igual manera. los deportivos estamos en un mismo barco. En 35 anos de la federacion nunca antes habiamos resibido la visita de un presidente del COPUR fuera de epoca de elecciones. nos parece un interes genuino de su parte romper con la cadena del abandono. a su vez recarco que la federacion debe realizar su funcion y serbira de apoyo, nopuede proveer los recurso como para una expacion explosiva de las actividades de la federacion pero prometio que conseguiriamos mas de lo que antes se asignaba. ha empezado con el pie derecho esperamos que continue cumpliendo con su labor. en Octubre el hockey fue la primera delegacion que envio a representar a la isla y la misma regreso rompiendo su marca en un panamericano juvenil de posicion 12 a 8. con este apoyo la federacion podra brindar mayores recursos para el desarrollo de los atletas y asi conseguir una posicion mayor. En mayaguez 2010 vamos por el medallero dijo bernier inspirando a los jovenes a dar el maximo para la justa Centro Americana.

En la continuacion del VII Campeonato Juveníl de la F.P.H, hasta el momento el mismo se conduce de forma exitosa y Para sorpresa de los directivos contamos con un publico mayor al acostumbrado en apoyo a sus respectivos equipos.
El señor Javier Montanez se mostra alegre siendo un exelente dia para el Deportivo Nacional venciendo al Ponce HC(5-1). Cabe señalar que el uso de las reglas nuevas afecto el resultado de este colectivo reflejandose en la victoria de Deportivo Nacional.

Warriors HC por su parte sorprendieron a todos al empatar (1-1) con el subcapeon de la liga el Athletic HC.(1-1)

El partido entre Hato Rey y Caguas, fue uno forzado en el que hato rey al final no pudo con la experiencia del colectivo de los Criollos que continuan de forma invicta al vencerles.(4-1)

El Santurce HC salio por la puerta ancha tras vencer al Ponce HC. Esto en un reñido partido en el que santurce lucho hasta conseguir conectar el gol. Gol que con exfuerzo el portero de Ponce logro evitar hasta casi el final del partido. El mismo culmino 1-0 a favor de Santurce.

hasta la fecha las posiciones son:

1. Caguas Hockey Club (9ptos)


2. CH Deportivo Nacional (4ptos)


3. Santurce Hocket Club (3ptos)


4. Warriors Hockey Club (2ptos)


5. Hato Rey Hockey Club (1pto)


6. Ponce Hockey Club (1pto)

El hockey tiene el mejor "Sistema de Tarjetas"

"Lo he dicho antes y lo diré de nuevo! Hockey tiene el mejor sistema de tarjetas en el mundo del deporte. La opción de la verde-amarillo-rojo 3 proporciona el sistema de tarjetas de los árbitros con las herramientas adecuadas para administrar la pena de amonestación o en cualquier fase del partido."

-Steve Jaspan

En el fútbol las dos tarjetas (amarillo / rojo) sistema crea lagunas en la capacidad para sancionar a los jugadores que también se ve incoherencias en las decisiones que temprano o tarde en los juegos, así como las decisiones que pueden cambiar el curso irreversible de un juego. Esto a menudo se basa en una interpretación de una falta profesional o hacer frente. En el rugby la misma crítica que se aplica en el fútbol, salvo que los diez minutos sin bin es razonable y similar a la situación de hockey. Sin embargo, no hay camino intermedio entre un aviso y sin tarjeta de 10 minutos sin bin situación.

Aunque creo que un juez o árbitro que no siempre tienen que recurrir a tarjetas de si él o ella tiene realmente el control de la situación, las tarjetas son una herramienta útil de armas o en el arsenal árbitro / juez. El siguiente tema en el que creo que el hockey tiene un enfoque mejor que el rugby o el fútbol es sustituciones. El móvil de sustitución puede proporcionar un entrenador con muchas más opciones tácticas. En el rugby la sustitución situación ha mejorado, especialmente con sangre en las lesiones (para los equipos no se quedan con menos jugadores). En el fútbol, creo que realmente necesitan para revisar las cosas. Principios de las lesiones, por ejemplo, el portero puede salir y dejar un entrenador con opciones limitadas. Sucedió a Arsenal en su partido de cuartos de final Liga de Campeones con el Villarreal. Alúmina (el portero) y Gallas (defensa central) resultaron heridos en una fase temprana del juego que salió de Arsene Wenger, con pocas opciones. ¿Es esto justo y razonable? Creo que no! En cuanto a las normas o leyes (como los llama Rugby) es interesante el hecho de que el hockey ha eliminado off-side y que el fútbol no lo ha hecho. Rugby las leyes son demasiado complejas como fueron las reglas del hockey, pero estos se han mejorado enormemente en los últimos años. en el Rugby, hockey y cricket tener acceso a todos los árbitros de video para verificar decisiones cruciales, pero el fútbol se niega resueltamente a que lo hagan! Video arbitraje y las decisiones de los retrasos que derivarse algún tiempo es un tema muy importante, pero esto puede ser manejado. La idea básica es garantizar la correcta decisión se alcanza razonablemente rápido! Las leyes / normas deben orientarse a garantizar el juego justo, seguro, fluye libremente (como algunos paros como sea posible) de fácil comprensión / interpretarse y mejora el juego como un espectáculo visual.

23 de Abril, 2009
Procedimiento para la calificación a los Juegos Panamericanos del 2011Julio 2011 - Guadalajara, México
La Federación Panamericana de Hockey anunció el procedimiento de clasificación para los XV Juegos Panamericanos 2011 que tendrán lugar en Guadalajara, México, en julio de 2011.
Entendemos que todos los países de la Federación Panamericana de Hockey deberían tener la oportunidad de clasificar para los Juegos Panamericanos a través de un torneo regional a realizarse durante los dos años anteriores, al año de los Juegos Panamericanos.
Mientras que los VII Campeonatos Sudamericanos 2010 y los XXI Juegos de América Central y El Caribe 2010 proveen oportunidades para la mayoría de los países, esto no ocurre con los países de América del Norte (Canadá y EE.UU).
Tomando en consideración la premisa anterior, el siguiente es el detalle del procedimiento de clasificación oficial para los torneos de mujeres y varones de los XVI Juegos Panamericanos a realizarse en Guadalajara, México en julio de 2011:
País anfitrión (Mexico).
Los países ubicados primero y segundo en los VII Campeonatos Sudamericanos (cuando el mínimo de participantes sea de cuatro equipos).
Los países ubicados primero y segundo en los XXI Juegos de América Central y El Caribe (cuando el mínimo de participantes sea de cuatro equipos).
Dos países que no estuvieran clasificados según los párrafos 1-3 arriba enunciados, basados en el ranking final de la III Copa Panamericana 2009.
El octavo equipo de mujeres se determinará luego de finalizado el VII Campeonato Sudamericano o XXI Juegos de América Central y El Caribe. (cualquiera de los torneos, sea el que se dispute último).
En el caso que Canadá (mujeres) no clasifique según detalle de los párrafos 1- 4 arriba enunciados, este país jugará una serie de tres partidos en cancha neutral contra el equipo de damas del país que hubiera clasificado para los Juegos Panamericanos como tercer país de acuerdo al párrafo 4, que se describe más arriba, siendo el ganador quien ocupará el octavo lugar, en el torneo de mujeres.
El octavo país en la categoría varones, será aquel país que hubiera clasificado como tercer país para los Juegos Panamericanos de acuerdo al párrafo 4, que se describe más arriba.
Nota: Si hubieran menos de cuatro países participantes en los VII Campeonatos Sudamericanos o XXI Juegos de América Central y El Caribe, clasificará un país adicional basado en los rankings de la Copa Panamericana 2009.
Para más información, favor contactar el Comité de Competencias PAHF o visitar la página web de la Federación Panamericana de Hockey.
La Federación Panamericana de Hockey (PAHF) es reconocida por la FIH como la Federación Continental gobernante para todo el hockey en la región panamericana. Hay 26 países miembros en la PAHF. Para más información por favor contacte info@panamhockey.org.

The competition, known as “EHL Final Four”, will be played over the Whitsun weekend – Saturday 30th May and Sunday 31th May. Founded in 1925, H.C. Rotterdam is the biggest hockey club in the Netherlands with currently over 2.450 members and an impressive venue that includes three water-based as well as four sand-filled full-size hockey fields. The club moved to its current home base in the summer of 2001. H.C.

Sunday 31st May12.00hrs Match for 3rd and 4th place14.30hrs Euro Hockey League 2008/2009 Final Note: Fixtures may change depending on TV requirementsEHF Release latest Euro Hockey League Ranking TableFollowing the completion of EHL Rounds 2 and 3 (KO16) in Hamburg, and the EuroHockey Club Trophy tournament (M) in Dublin last weekend, the European Hockey Federation (EHF) has released the all-important Euro Hockey League Ranking Table. The table determines by order of ranking the number of teams from each country that will participate in the next season’s Euro Hockey League. The big news to come from this is that Ireland has moved up the table from tenth to seventh place, which means that they will have two representatives in next season’s Euro Hockey League competition. This is partly due to the incredible efforts of Three Rock Rovers, who reached the last 16 of this season’s competition. To see the story in full, click here.
KO16 Hamburg – facts & figuresDid you know that a total of 21 penalty corners were scored in the twelve matches played at the event? Or that HC Bloemendaal was the only team that did not feel the need to refer to the video umpire in their victories over Cannock HC and East Grinstead? We have compiled a list of fascinating facts and figures that examines everything from the number of disciplinary cards issued to the most successful open play goal scorer at KO16 Hamburg. To read more facts, click here!
UHC Hamburg triumph in “Das Duell”Following their stunning successes at KO16, reining Euro Hockey League champions UHC Hamburg continued their fine form with a brilliant 4-1 victory over rivals Der Club an der Alster in the German Hockey Liga. The meeting of the two sides - known as "Das Duell" - took place at UHC Hamburg, and also featured a clash between the women of UHC and Alster, with Alster taking a 2-1 win to ensure that the UHC Hamburg would not have all of the glory. UHC’s victory in the men’s game lifted them above their opponents into second place in the league, seven points adrift of leaders Rot-Weiss Köln. To read more, click here.
EHL Top Goal Scorers list updatedClub Egara's Guillermo Schickendantz is still at the top of the Goal Scorers list thanks to five goals in two games at KO16 Hamburg. The prolific striker has now scored 11 times in just four Euro Hockey League matches this season, and is unlikely to be overtaken despite his side's elimination from the tournament at the hands of UHC Hamburg.

Final day drama at KO16 Hamburg

The Euro Hockey League KO16 Hamburg event came to an end today, completing four days of sun, shock results and sensational hockey. The day’s first match saw KHC Leuven of Belgium stun 2003 European Champions Reading with a 2-1 victory. The win and subsequent qualification for the Semi Finals is incredible for a team that many believed would not even make it out of the group stage. Dutch giants Amsterdam H&BC and H.C. Rotterdam went head-to-head in the final match of KO16 Hamburg as the two teams played out the most dramatic match of the weekend, with H.C. Rotterdam winning on penalties. You can find brief reports of the matches below, and extended reports on the Euro Hockey League website – www.ehlhockey.tv.

Quarter Final 3: KHC Leuven 2-1 Reading HC
Belgium's KHC Leuven scored a 66th minute winner to defeat pre-match favourites Reading 2-1 to book their place in the semi-finals of the Euro Hockey League. Patrice Houssein scored a brilliant deflection to finish Reading's European ambitions to set up a Semi Final match against reigning EHL Champions UHC Hamburg at the end of May. 

KHC Leuven almost took the lead in the very first minute when striker Pau Quemada got his stick on a cross from the left by Renaud Pangrazio, but the effort flew fractionally wide of the right post. In the eighth minute of the match Reading conceded a penalty corner which was slammed into the net by Quemada to give Leuven a 1-0 lead. The Spaniard had managed to achieve what his countrymen from Polo Barcelona had failed to do on Saturday – beat Reading keeper Nick Brothers. Despite constant second half pressure from Reading, the Leuven defence was performing excellently, keeping their opponent’s goal scoring chances to a minimum. Eventually though, Reading’s pressure resulted in a 47th minute penalty corner, and Great Britain defender Richard Mantell flicked a ferocious effort into the goal via the right post. After being dominated by Reading for much of the last two quarters, KHC Leuven then sprang into life to stun Reading in the final five minutes. Pau Quemada forced a double save from Nick Brothers, before Hugues de Cooman crossed for Patrice Houssein who deflected the ball into the roof of the net to give Leuven a famous victory. For more details click here.

Quarter Final 4: Amsterdam H&BC 3-5 H.C. Rotterdam (A.P.S.)
Amsterdam H&BC were ahead on two occasions but suffered the cruelty of being eliminated on penalties strokes, with H.C. Rotterdam taking the only remaining place in the Semi Finals. A Phil Burrows field goal in the 61st minute tied the scores at 2-2 and the sides could not be separated in extra time to guarantee a dramatic penalty shootout. Amsterdam's Santi Freixa was the player to miss the vital penalty - a cruel blow to a player who was arguably the game’s most outstanding player. The result means that H.C. Rotterdam will face compatriots HC Bloemendaal in the semi-finals of the Euro Hockey League at the end of May.

Amsterdam took an early lead through Teun Rohof, who deflected a cleverly aimed pass from penalty corner expert Taeke Taekema into the roof of the goal. H.C. Rotterdam got themselves back in the game with a penalty corner of their own, but like the earlier effort scored by Amsterdam, it came from an unexpected source. Sohail Abbas stepped over the ball as Rotterdam used a different routine, and Mauritz Hertzberger put the ball into the top of the net from close range. However, Amsterdam’s irresistible Spaniard Santi Friexa produced a moment of brilliance when he beat three players from the right before hitting the ball into the goal with his reverse stick. Amsterdam were clearly the dominant force and it seemed as if they would be the team heading to the semi finals, but Rotterdam’s Phil Burrows changed the flow of the match when he equalised with nine minutes remaining. With no goals in extra time, it came down to penalties. Jeroen Hertzberger of H.C. Rotterdam made no mistake with his effort, but Amsterdam's Santi Freixa had his shot well blocked by keeper Permin Blaak to give Rotterdam the edge. Rotterdam’s Phil Burrows made the score 4-2 before Amsterdam's Valentin Verga scored to keep his side in the match. However, the Rotterdam players were just one goal away from reaching the semi finals. Waseem Ahmad attempted to dribble past goalkeeper Klaas Veering, but was tripped and a penalty goal was awarded to give H.C. Rotterdam second successive appearance in the Euro Hockey League Semi Finals. For more details click here.

KO16 Hamburg takes place over Easter between Friday 10th and Monday 13th April, hosted by reigning Euro Hockey League champions Uhlenhorster HC. Tickets are still available for the event, so you still have a chance to witness one of the most exciting spectacles in European club hockey. To purchase online tickets, simply visit the Ticketing & Accommodation section of www.ehlhockey.tv, click the link and follow the instructions.

EHL: We cannot under-estimate Alster, says Egara’s Schickendantz
Euro Hockey League top goal-scorer Guillermo Schickendantz has told the EHL that Club Egara need to be prepared to face a very different Club an der Alster team in Round 2 to the side they crushed 4-0 in Round 1. “I think it will be a very different match”, the Argentinean told the EHL website. “Everything will be different and it will help them that they play in Germany. It will be a big mistake if we think about the 1st Round result.”

EHL & UHC Hamburg announce KO16 player party!
The players at EHL KO16 may have serious hockey matters to attend to, but Euro Hockey League & UHC Hamburg has given them the chance to let off steam with their fans and supporters at the Official Players Night. The event will take place on Easter Sunday (April 12th) at Cafe Keese in Hamburg’s famous Reeperbahn district. The party will begin at 10.30pm and is for adults only, with a cost of entry set at 10€ (8€ if purchased in advance).

NETHERLANDS: Bloemendaal "preparations going well", says coach Caldas
HC Bloemendaal coach Max Caldas has stated to the Euro Hockey League that his team has no injury concerns ahead of KO16 Hamburg and that team preparations are going “very well”. However, he admits that he may be without teenage sensation Rik van Kan, the 16-year-old who recently scored his first goal in the Hoofdklasse. “Rik might be going to Valencia to play for the Dutch U-18’s in a Four Nations tournament, but we shall see”, said Caldas.

ENGLAND: Grinstead take title while Cannock fail in EHL qualifying bid
East Grinstead were crowned Slazenger England Hockey League Champions for the first time in their history at the weekend thanks to a brilliant 5-3 away win at Surbiton. Germany international Martin Häner scored twice in the all-important victory, completing a remarkable double for East Grinstead who also claimed the national indoor title earlier in the year. Reading HC and Cannock went head to head to decide the one remaining Euro Hockey League place, with Reading taking a 5-0 victory to guarantee their participation in next season’s EHL.

BELGIUM: Waterloo Ducks re-discover their form
VW Hockey League Champions Waterloo Ducks have had a tough few weeks, but re-discovered their form with an 8-3 victory over Heracles. It is good news for the Ducks ahead of their EHL KO16 match against Amsterdam H&BC, as they will need to be at their best to defeat the Dutch high-flyers. KHC Leuven have been in good form of late and currently sit second in the league, but their 4-3 home victory over league strugglers Orée may worry some of their supporters in the build up to their match against Ireland’s Three Rock Rovers.

SPAIN: RC Polo & Egara looking good ahead of KO16
Spain’s remaining EHL contenders RC de Polo de Barcelona and Club Egara are currently second and third in the Princess Hockey Liga, with both teams having lost just once all season. At the weekend, RC Polo defeated league leaders Atlétic Terrassa 3-1, confirming that they are in fine form, whilst Club Egara moved level on points with Atlétic and Polo by crushing Real Club Jolaseta 8-1. Egara’s result was even more remarkable considering that they were without Europe’s most in form striker Guillermo Schickendantz, who was in Argentina for his sister’s wedding.

FRANCE: Unbeaten St Germain boost goal difference 
St Germain are still unbeaten this season and sit second in the league, just one point behind Montrouge with a game in hand. A 3-0 away win at St Francais was achieved at the weekend, boosting their already excellent goal difference. They have conceded just twelve times in their ten matches, suggesting that English champions and KO16 opponents East Grinstead may have a tough time breaking through their rock solid defence.
