Probably due to the lack of developmental minor leagues or pro leagues. Kind of the same problem we have with soccer. If you're good, you need to move away as there is nothing past the University ranks unlike ice hockey where you have many more options.
Anyone play field hockey and can provide insight?

If you've played hockey you'd want no part of field hockey. It's such an inferior game. It's like trying to take a slapshot with an umbrella.
