1941: Hockey, Field

The schedules of field hockey players continued to be well filled in the competitions of both men's and women's teams. Besides the big men's games, played by teams from New York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and Los Angeles, the feature attraction was the game played by Olympic Team (1936) members against a team from the British airplane carrier Furious, in Baltimore, won by the Olympians. Sectional and National Tournaments were held among women's groups in colleges.

A new sectional association and a new local association were formed for women, the former taking the name of the Pacific Northwest Sectional F. H. A., including the Oregon and Western Washington Hockey Associations. The local organization bears the name of Tri-State, composed of clubs of long standing in Massachusetts, upper New York State and Rhode Island. The Tri-State Association was officially accepted as a member of the Northeast Sectional F. H. A. during the National Tournament at Wellesley. Twenty-two leading players of 1941 were chosen during the tournament by the U. S. F. H. A. committee, named as the 1941 All-American first and reserve teams, selecting players from all districts of the United States.
