Who is a "defender"?
A defender is a player in sports like soccer, rugby, or hockey whose main job is to stop the other team from scoring. They work to prevent the opposing team’s players from getting close to the goal, block shots, and win back possession of the ball or puck. Defenders often stay near their own goal area to protect it and help their team clear the ball or puck away from danger. They are important for supporting the team’s defense and ensuring the opposing team does not easily get chances to score.
