MOSCOW, January 29 The International Olympic Committee (IOC) published on the official website special rules for the hockey tournament at the 2022 Games. It is noted that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, hockey teams can be awarded two sets of gold medals if the participants in the final and the match for third place cannot recruit the required number of hockey players for the application (according to the rules : 15 field players + two goalkeepers). Thus, two teams can get gold medals and two more can get bronze.
