It's called stickhandling (in ice hockey anyways).

I have a theory....only a theory. Newer turf fields are uniform length and have the same response, so a player knows their pass will be straight and the speed will be consistant. With that gone, why would a player dribble up when a pass moves a lat quicker up the field then the player?
Also, coming from a cold climate, indoor field hockey leads to a pass heavy game do to the small field and that carries out onto the larger pitch.

Not enough Europeans!!! I know what you all are thinking, "Hey, those guys all wear goofy helmets with visors, they hardly ever drop the gloves, and are quite dirty with the slashing and high sticking." Forget all that stuff, man can they stickhandle(dribble if you want). And passes from blade to blade through legs, sticks and bodies! Import a few Europeans to your league, and the next thing you know your deciding tie games by shoot outs! Awesome, just like the game was never meant to be played.

They puck never leaves the groung unless you hit it and it goes up. It wouldnt make sense to have dribbling in hockey. You dont dribble you skat with the puck.
