At the college level, field hockey can offer a challenging and dynamic experience. It's important to focus on improving your speed and agility, as well as exploring opportunities for recruitment at camps, clinics, and tournaments. Keep in mind that the game is more than just the position you're used to playing, and be open to learning and adapting to new strategies. Accessibility to fields and playing surfaces, such as Astroturf, can be a challenge, so seeking out clubs, leagues, and opportunities to continue playing can be important. Finally, be prepared to adapt to new roles and strategies, as the game of field hockey is not black and white and can ebb and flow.
