> Checking/hitting from behind is a foul, as is anything around 
> the head and you cannot reach over a players head to check 
> the ball carriers stick.  Cross-checking that is about as 
> hard as a firm push is allowed but not much more.  Charging 
> and blocking can both be called.  An offensive player cannot 
> enter the cylinder of the goal circle, i.e., your stick 
> cannot enter the circle on the follow through (Princeton lost 
> a goal that way on Sunday), a tighter restriction than in the 
> men's game where you just can't step into the circle before a 
> shot. When the ball goes out-of-bounds, the closest player to 
> the ball when it goes out retains possession (different from 
> the men's game where that only occurs on a shot).  The stick 
> has virtually no pocket in the women's game making it much 
> more difficult to carry, pass, throw or shoot the ball; the 
> men's stick has a considerable pocket helping them to 
> maintain possession in a hard check.  It also allows much 
> more powerful shots from further out and with more accuracy.
