prob be less violent
The senario mentioned by Neil you are obstructing the opponents mallet from the ball with usually a mallet but can get nasty if someone gives a serious wind up.
I'm finding with my inexperienced team that a few players get just below shoulder height and if you are extending from the hooks you can come in the line of fire. So a lot of our players will simply smack the opponents mallet away. Is this slashing and is this legal? Bearing in mind that the defender cannot hit the ball but can strike the mallet shaft reasonably safely.
