The standard weight of a hockey ball is between 156 to 163 grams. This weight range is specified by the International Hockey Federation (FIH) and ensures that the ball is suitable for use in field hockey. The weight helps in maintaining the ball's consistency in performance during play, balancing durability and control while being resilient enough to withstand the impact of high-speed shots and passes.
