Section 6: Scoring
Goal
A goal is scored when the entire ball passes the goal line into the goal, propelled by an attacking player's stick. The official confirms goals on the field; specific goal/no-goal reviewable situations may be reviewed via NCAA video review.
Goal Value
- Goals from inside the 8-meter arc: 1 point
- Two-point arc: under NCAA women's rules, certain editions and trials have implemented a two-point line at a specified distance — verify the 2026/27 edition for current two-point arc presence and distance
Match Result
- The team scoring more goals at the end of regulation wins
- If regulation ends in a tie, sudden-victory overtime is played in 3-minute periods until a goal is scored
