Oz hockey player dies after being hit by ball

A promising young woman hockey player from Western Australia has died after being hit by a ball during a game.

Lizzie Watkins, 24, died of fatal head injuries after a ball deflected off her own stick and hit her in the back of the head during a game at Curtin University yesterday.

The Australian hockey community is in shock following the tragic death of Watkins in a freak accident during the match yesterday, Perth Now reports.

The young woman was a defender for the North Coast Raiders and was part of the team playing the Victoria Park Panthers.

She fell to the ground unconscious when she hit herself midway through the first half of the game.

Watkins' sister Catherine Carrol was playing alongside her and rushed to her side.

People at the scene attempted to revive Watkins, who was breathing when an ambulance arrived. She died on the way to hospital.

Hockey Australia Chief Executive Mark Anderson said Sunday was a very sad day for the sport. (ANI)
