Abstract
Penalty corner in field hockey is a complex motor skill. It required high level of coordination. The aim of this
study was to provide important biomechanical variables related information for the Sports biomechanist, Young
sports scientist, Coaches and also for drag flick specialist for their performance enhancement programs. Four
specialist male drag-flickers of two different universities namely LNIPE, Gawalior , and Aligarh Muslim
University , Aligarh, age range 19-25 years, height ranged 174-182cm and weight range 59.4- 66.8 Kg. and all
having six to eight years of experiences were participated in this study. Three dimensional (3D) experimental
setup was conducted for the study. All of the measurements were carried out on the Asto truf ground in their
respective universities fields. Two video cameras Canon Legria SF-10 were used to capture all drag flick trials.
The shuttering speed of cameras were set on 1/1000 and 50hz frame rate. Both cameras were set with the help of
tripod placed at right side of the subjects mounted at a height of 1.2m. During captured drag flick, the distances
of cameras were set at 13m and 17m from the stationary ball position and optical axes of the recording cameras
were intersect each other on the subject at 90° and 60° respectively to right side in a field setting. The drag
flickers and ball movement during the drag flick phase were recorded. Videos footages were edited and
synchronized for 3D biomechanical analysis. DLT method was used to calibrate of both the cameras. The drag
distance, stride length, ball velocity and acceleration, angles, linear and angular velocity and linear and angular
acceleration of shoulder, knee, elbow, wrist of left and right side were digitized and three dimensional data was
obtained with the help of Max TRAQ 3D motion analysis software.SPSSv.16. was used to calculate the selected
parameters and statistical analysis mean and standard deviations. T-test was used to find out the comparison
between LNIPE, Gawalior and A.M.U.Aligarh. And the result was found that drag distance and hockey stick
blade, linear velocity of shoulder (L&R), pelvic (L&R), Knee (L) and wrist (R),angular velocity of shoulder
(L&R), elbow (L&R), pelvic(L&R), Knee(L), ankle(R) and wrist(R), linear acceleration of hockey stick blade
and ball, shoulder (L), Knee(R), ankle(R) and toe(R), angular acceleration of wrist (R) and joint angles of
shoulder (L&R), elbow (L), wrist (R) and ankle(R) during drag differs significantly and hence does influences

Introduction
The penalty corner is almost a sure opportunity for scoring in field hockey. Drag flick technique is mainly used
by the player during penalty corner only. It is apparent that the drag flick is both the most frequently used, and
most successful method for scoring goals (Laird and Sutherland, 2003; Mosquera et al., 2007). There are gender
differences though, with the drag flick used less frequently by females than males (López de Subijana et al.,
2012).
Drag flick is the main offensive action during the penalty corner and the team with more drag flicks on target has
better chances to score and win a game. Drag flick technique has provide new dimension for the execution of
penalty corner. Successful drag flicks need better execution of technique and accuracy, especially when drag
flicking on goal to increase the scoring ability. For clear understanding of drag flick technique, drag flicker must
understand their movement pattern which is to be used during performance of drag flick.
In any sports, biomechanical analysis has become increasingly important to understand the complex movement.

In hockey too the 3D analysis is required for better understanding of flicker’s movement pattern used in drag
flick. 3D video analysis is a biomechanical motion analysis which displays for athletes and coaches definitive
data on different joint angles, body positions, and segmental velocity during a sport-specific movement.
Little researches have been done on it to define aspects of the drag flick technique. McLaughlin (1997) aimed to
describe the kinematic variables of the drag flick and found stance width and drag distance to be the variables
most highly correlated with the principal criterion ball velocity. Gómez et al. (2012) focused upon identifying
the differences in kinematic variables of drag flicking depending upon the shot location. They found a
significantly greater negative angular velocity of the stick when flicking to the right than the left. (Subijana et al,
2010) have studies on biomechanical analysis of the penalty-corner drag-flick of elite male and female hockey
players and they found that both player groups showed significantly smaller ball velocity at release, peak angular
velocity of the pelvis, and negative and positive peak angular velocities of the stick than the skilled subject.
(Hussain et al,2012) have studied on biomechanical study on drag flick in field hockey between All India
Intervarsity and Senior State level male hockey players and found that no significant differences among the
groups.
Following from the above and prior researchers, this study has designed to describe the three diamensional
biomechanics comparisons of specialized drag flickers technique between Lakshmibai National University of
Physical Education (LNUPE), Gwalior (M.P) and Aligarh Muslim University (A.M.U.) Aligarh (U.P), accuracy
on the basis of kinematical variables of the drag flickers technique.
Methodology
Four specialist male drag-flickers of two different universities namely LNIPE, Gawalior , and Aligarh Muslim
University , Aligarh, age range 19-25 years, height ranged 174-182cm and weight range 59.4- 66.8 Kg. and all
having six to eight years of experiences participated in this study. Each participant of this study was requested to
provide informed consent prior to his participation. Three dimensional (3D) experimental setup was conducted
for the study. All of the measurements were carried out on the Asto truf ground in their respective universities
fields.
The subjects have used their own standard sticks as were approved by All India Association Committee, India.
Ball position for every drag was placed 14.63mts from goal post, on shooting circle ahead of goal post. The
subject performed the drag flick from stationary ball position. Each subject performed 10 consecutive drag flick
trials. All ten drag flicks were performed to a target. For this study, Best six accurate trials out of ten have been
selected for each subject. A trial was defined accurate every time the ball hit the target. Dimension of hanging
target was in the form of circle with 1 feet diameter which was hanging on the right side of drag flicker and top
corner of goal post. The video recording was stated after receive the signals from drag flicks. Execution of the
drag flick was possible after sufficient practice.
Two video cameras Canon Legria SF-10 were used to capture all drag flick trials. The shuttering speed of
cameras were set on 1/1000 and 50hz frame rate. Both cameras were set with the help of tripod placed at right
side of the subjects mounted at a height of 1.2m. During captured drag flick, the distances of cameras were set at
13m and 17m from the stationary ball position and optical axes of the recording cameras were intersect each
other on the subject at 90° and 60° respectively to right side in a field setting.
The video recording was done in sunny and clear weather condition at during morning training session. For best
performance of subjects during drag flick under the accuracy condition, subjects were instructed to wear
complete proper kit.
The drag flickers and ball movement during the drag flick phase were recorded (fig.1). Fig. 2,3 & 4 are
representing stick figures of drag during the drag flick on different planes.

Videos footages were edited and synchronized for 3D biomechanical analysis. DLT method was used to
calibrate of both the cameras. The drag distance, stride length, ball velocity and acceleration, angles, linear and
angular velocity and linear and angular acceleration of shoulder, knee, elbow, wrist of left and right side were
digitized and three dimensional data was obtained with the help of Max TRAQ 3D motion analysis software.
The ball velocity at drag phase was measured from ball-stick contact to the point of release the ball. Stride length
of the subjects were obtained from right foot toe to left foot toe.
SPSSv.16. was used to calculate the selected parameters and statistical analysis mean and standard deviations. T-
test was used to find out the comparison between LNIPE, Gawalior and A.M.U.Aligarh.

Discussion:
The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of two different universities field hockey drag flickers
specialist technique on selected biomechanical parameters under accuracy condition in order to provide relevant
information for drag flickers in field hockey. Maximum drag distance is obtained through hockey stick blade
which is not possible without ball contact to hockey stick blade. As it was shown in the results the drag distance
and hockey stick blade does influence on drag flick performance. The greater the drag distance, the greater the
release velocity of the ball reported by Mclaughlin(1997). Linear and angular velocities of right and left shoulder
and pelvis help to produce carrying the ball forward due to the conservation momentum through hockey stick
blade. The utilization of rotation at the hip and shoulders also affects the ball velocity developed after the left
foot has contacted the ground reported by Mclaughlin(1997).
Linear velocity of right wrist contribute in drag flick performance because right hand fully supportable to the
stick grip which has possible movement through right wrist momentum. Left knee of the flicker is responsible
for given comfortable position because during the dragging, flicker’s body should be well-balanced, with his left
knees bent and back arched as low as possible to the ground.
Drag phase in hockey is the key phase to generate momentum and also significantly contribute in performance of
drag flick techniques. The angular velocity of left shoulder, elbow, pelvis and knee and angular velocity of right
shoulder, elbow, wrist, pelvis and ankle shows significance differences between the both universities flickers.

Linear acceleration of right shoulder, knee, ankle and toe shows significance differences between both university
players.
Angular acceleration of right wrist shows significance differences exist in between both universities flickers due
to stick stores the energy and the wrist movement releases it. Differences in magnitude of angle right and left
shoulder and left elbow and also in right wrist and right ankle have been found. Flickers stick shaft angle slightly
back to give the ball added lift. Segmental length of players plays vital role in angular and linear kinematics
during drag flick techniques. Results of this study show that both university players have kinematical
differences. These kinematical differences proportionally affect the performance and produce differences in
different kinematics of the flicker.

Four specialist male drag-flickers of two different universities namely LNIPE, Gawalior , and Aligarh Muslim University , Aligarh, age range 19-25 years, height ranged 174-182cm and weight range 59.4- 66.8 Kg. and all having six to eight years of experiences were participated in this study. Three dimensional (3D) experimental setup was conducted for the study. All of the measurements were carried out on the Asto truf ground in their respective universities fields. Two video cameras Canon Legria SF-10 were used to capture all drag flick trials. The shuttering speed of cameras were set on 1/1000 and 50hz frame rate. Both cameras were set with the help of tripod placed at right side of the subjects mounted at a height of 1.2m. During captured drag flick, the distances of cameras were set at 13m and 17m from the stationary ball position and optical axes of the recording cameras were intersect each other on the subject at 90° and 60° respectively to right side in a field setting. The drag flickers and ball movement during the drag flick phase were recorded. Videos footages were edited and synchronized for 3D biomechanical analysis. DLT method was used to calibrate of both the cameras. The drag distance, stride length, ball velocity and acceleration, angles, linear and angular velocity and linear and angular acceleration of shoulder, knee, elbow, wrist of left and right side were digitized and three dimensional data was obtained with the help of Max TRAQ 3D motion analysis software.SPSSv.16. was used to calculate the selected parameters and statistical analysis mean and standard deviations. T-test was used to find out the comparison between LNIPE, Gawalior and A.M.U.Aligarh. And the result was found that drag distance and hockey stick blade, linear velocity of shoulder (L&R), pelvic (L&R), Knee (L) and wrist (R),angular velocity of shoulder (L&R), elbow (L&R), pelvic(L&R), Knee(L), ankle(R) and wrist(R), linear acceleration of hockey stick blade and ball, shoulder (L), Knee(R), ankle(R) and toe(R), angular acceleration of wrist (R) and joint angles of shoulder (L&R), elbow (L), wrist (R) and ankle(R) during drag differs significantly and hence does influences on drag flick technique under accuracy condition. Keywords: Drag of Dragflick, Biomechanical, Three Dimensional, Motion analysis, performance Introduction The penalty corner is almost a sure opportunity for scoring in field hockey. Drag flick technique is mainly used by the player during penalty corner only. It is apparent that the drag flick is both the most frequently used, and most successful method for scoring goals (Laird and Sutherland, 2003; Mosquera et al., 2007). There are gender differences though, with the drag flick used less frequently by females than males (López de Subijana et al., 2012). Drag flick is the main offensive action during the penalty corner and the team with more drag flicks on target has better chances to score and win a game. Drag flick technique has provide new dimension for the execution of penalty corner. Successful drag flicks need better execution of technique and accuracy, especially when drag flicking on goal to increase the scoring ability. For clear understanding of drag flick technique, drag flicker must understand their movement pattern which is to be used during performance of drag flick. In any sports, biomechanical analysis has become increasingly important to understand the complex movement.

Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.5, No.20, 2014 92 In hockey too the 3D analysis is required for better understanding of flicker’s movement pattern used in drag flick. 3D video analysis is a biomechanical motion analysis which displays for athletes and coaches definitive data on different joint angles, body positions, and segmental velocity during a sport-specific movement. Little researches have been done on it to define aspects of the drag flick technique. McLaughlin (1997) aimed to describe the kinematic variables of the drag flick and found stance width and drag distance to be the variables most highly correlated with the principal criterion ball velocity. Gómez et al. (2012) focused upon identifying the differences in kinematic variables of drag flicking depending upon the shot location. They found a significantly greater negative angular velocity of the stick when flicking to the right than the left. (Subijana et al, 2010) have studies on biomechanical analysis of the penalty-corner drag-flick of elite male and female hockey players and they found that both player groups showed significantly smaller ball velocity at release, peak angular velocity of the pelvis, and negative and positive peak angular velocities of the stick than the skilled subject. (Hussain et al,2012) have studied on biomechanical study on drag flick in field hockey between All India Intervarsity and Senior State level male hockey players and found that no significant differences among the groups. Following from the above and prior researchers, this study has designed to describe the three diamensional biomechanics comparisons of specialized drag flickers technique between Lakshmibai National University of Physical Education (LNUPE), Gwalior (M.P) and Aligarh Muslim University (A.M.U.) Aligarh (U.P), accuracy on the basis of kinematical variables of the drag flickers technique. Methodology Four specialist male drag-flickers of two different universities namely LNIPE, Gawalior , and Aligarh Muslim University , Aligarh, age range 19-25 years, height ranged 174-182cm and weight range 59.4- 66.8 Kg. and all having six to eight years of experiences participated in this study. Each participant of this study was requested to provide informed consent prior to his participation. Three dimensional (3D) experimental setup was conducted for the study. All of the measurements were carried out on the Asto truf ground in their respective universities fields. The subjects have used their own standard sticks as were approved by All India Association Committee, India. Ball position for every drag was placed 14.63mts from goal post, on shooting circle ahead of goal post. The subject performed the drag flick from stationary ball position. Each subject performed 10 consecutive drag flick trials. All ten drag flicks were performed to a target. For this study, Best six accurate trials out of ten have been selected for each subject. A trial was defined accurate every time the ball hit the target. Dimension of hanging target was in the form of circle with 1 feet diameter which was hanging on the right side of drag flicker and top corner of goal post. The video recording was stated after receive the signals from drag flicks. Execution of the drag flick was possible after sufficient practice. Two video cameras Canon Legria SF-10 were used to capture all drag flick trials. The shuttering speed of cameras were set on 1/1000 and 50hz frame rate. Both cameras were set with the help of tripod placed at right side of the subjects mounted at a height of 1.2m. During captured drag flick, the distances of cameras were set at 13m and 17m from the stationary ball position and optical axes of the recording cameras were intersect each other on the subject at 90° and 60° respectively to right side in a field setting. The video recording was done in sunny and clear weather condition at during morning training session. For best performance of subjects during drag flick under the accuracy condition, subjects were instructed to wear complete proper kit. The drag flickers and ball movement during the drag flick phase were recorded (fig.1). Fig. 2,3 & 4 are representing stick figures of drag during the drag flick on different planes. Fig.1 Fig.2

This statistical finding exhibits that the shoulder (L&R), elbow (L), wrist (R) and ankle(R) during drag differs significantly and hence does influences on drag flick technique under accuracy condition. Discussion: The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of two different universities field hockey drag flickers specialist technique on selected biomechanical parameters under accuracy condition in order to provide relevant information for drag flickers in field hockey. Maximum drag distance is obtained through hockey stick blade which is not possible without ball contact to hockey stick blade. As it was shown in the results the drag distance and hockey stick blade does influence on drag flick performance. The greater the drag distance, the greater the release velocity of the ball reported by Mclaughlin(1997). Linear and angular velocities of right and left shoulder and pelvis help to produce carrying the ball forward due to the conservation momentum through hockey stick blade. The utilization of rotation at the hip and shoulders also affects the ball velocity developed after the left foot has contacted the ground reported by Mclaughlin(1997). Linear velocity of right wrist contribute in drag flick performance because right hand fully supportable to the stick grip which has possible movement through right wrist momentum. Left knee of the flicker is responsible for given comfortable position because during the dragging, flicker’s body should be well-balanced, with his left knees bent and back arched as low as possible to the ground. Drag phase in hockey is the key phase to generate momentum and also significantly contribute in performance of drag flick techniques. The angular velocity of left shoulder, elbow, pelvis and knee and angular velocity of right shoulder, elbow, wrist, pelvis and ankle shows significance differences between the both universities flickers.

Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.5, No.20, 2014 96 Linear acceleration of right shoulder, knee, ankle and toe shows significance differences between both university players. Angular acceleration of right wrist shows significance differences exist in between both universities flickers due to stick stores the energy and the wrist movement releases it. Differences in magnitude of angle right and left shoulder and left elbow and also in right wrist and right ankle have been found. Flickers stick shaft angle slightly back to give the ball added lift. Segmental length of players plays vital role in angular and linear kinematics during drag flick techniques. Results of this study show that both university players have kinematical differences. These kinematical differences proportionally affect the performance and produce differences in different kinematics of the flicker. References 1. GómezM., Subijana C.L, Antonio R., Navarro E.,2012.
