Solution
- The goal line in hockey is the line that grows across the width of the field at either end, immediately in front of the goalposts. It defines the field of play and the goal area.
- A goal is scored when the ball fully crosses the goal line, under the crossbar and between the two goalposts.
- The goal line is an important feature of the field since it decides whether or not a scoring attempt is successful.
- It is also utilised to make decisions on penalty corners, free hits, and other stoppages of play near the goal.
