The aims of this investigation were to describe the physical output of hockey relative to possession status, and to identify differences in physical output during each possession category with respect of match result. Ten international matches were analysed utilizing Sportscode to identify in and not in possession instances. 24 players (age 26 ± 4) wore a 10 Hz GPS device to track physical output. Linear Mixed Models and post hoc pairwise comparisons were utilised to compare the physical output in each possession category within each position and relative to match result. Significant main effects were found for possession status on several physical output metrics (p ≤ 0.05). For all positions except forwards, not in possession instances were more physically demanding than in possession instances for metrics such as relative total distance, explosive distance, and high-speed running (>5.5 m.s⁻¹). No significant difference was identified between possession category physical output aligned with match result (p > 0.05). This study shows for the first time that not in possession instances were more physically demanding than in possession instances for defenders, outside backs and midfielders. For not in possession instances, relative total distance and high-speed running was, on average, 13% and 41% higher compared to in possession instances. Furthermore, there was no statistical difference in physical output for any position during each possession category relative to the match result.

本次调查的目的是描述曲棍球相对于控球状态的体能输出，并根据比赛结果确定每个控球类别中体能输出的差异。使用 Sportscode 分析了十场国际比赛，以确定拥有和未拥有的实例。24 名球员（26 ± 4 岁）佩戴 10 Hz GPS 设备来跟踪身体输出。利用线性混合模型和事后成对比较来比较每个位置内每个控球类别的身体输出以及相对于匹配结果。发现对几个身体输出指标（p ≤ 0.05）的拥有状态有显着的主要影响。对于除前锋以外的所有位置，在相对总距离、^-1 )。在与比赛结果一致的拥有类别身体输出之间没有发现显着差异（p > 0.05）。这项研究首次表明，对于防守者、外线后卫和中场球员来说，不控球的情况比控球的情况对体力要求更高。对于非控球情况，相对总距离和高速跑的平均速度比控球情况高 13% 和 41%。此外，相对于比赛结果，每个控球类别期间任何位置的体能输出没有统计差异。
