Please can you list Field Hockey as an activity. The third highest sport on the planet by participation.

How can Garmin not even allow us to record things like Cricket, Field Hockey, Badminton, Basketball, Volley Ball - all activities that we want to share with our friends that we have been doing, and monitor our performance. I have seen somewhere that Garmin claim that the sport does not allow participants to wear watch devices when playing matches. Well Garmin appear to have soccer on their list of activities. If Garmin want to be thought of as as an international company they need to start behaving as one. They have an activity called 'Yard Work' but not Cricket or Field Hockey - I just want to be able to copy the soccer activity and rename it hockey or field hockey - I am guessing a really easy update to the software. Anyone found a work around?

  • Hi There - Can you advise how to update my VivoActive 4s watch to get this update. I have updated the watch to latest software updates and I am still not seeing field hockey as an activity. Please can you provide details how to do this. Much appreciated

  • Not on the watch. After you save an activity you can change the type to Field Hockey under Team Sports, using edit in Connect.

    It's up to you to decide what activity type you want to record and then change it.

    Not the best way, for sure, but the only way.... and it will never be changed on this model watch.
