Field Hockey Yo-Yo Test Results

The yo-yo test is part of the fitness testing protocols for many field hockey teams. The results below are collated from various sources online, and the accuracy of the test results cannot be confirmed. It is usually not noted whether the yo-yo intermittent recovery test level 1 or 2 is used, so this list unfortunately may be a mixture of both (results in bold are confirmed YYIR1 results). See also the Yo-Yo test top performances list (all sports).

Results from the Indian hockey team may be from a different version of the test as six players reaching 23.8 does not sound reasonable. "At a recent Yo-Yo Test, six or seven Indian players — including Sumit and Mandeep Singh — touched the highest level of 23.8. Skipper Manpreet Singh reached 23.2. The Indian team's minimum target for goalkeepers is 20 while for outfield players, the target is between 22-23." quote from https://www.firstpost.com/sports/fih-pro-league-2020-indian-hockey-team-fitter-than-ever-before-says-coach-graham-reid-as-players-ace-yo-yo-test-8016021.html
