I'm guessing you just want to insult me without explaining anything.

Without looking anything up I know the average NHL player is 6’’2 200. It’s a physical game. The average Premier League soccer player is 6’ 170. He has to be able to out jump opposition on headers and be agile enough to run the pitch. The average Pro Lacrosse player is 6’2” 200.

Long distance runners are thin. They used to be 6’+ 150. The African trend now (best long distance runners in the world) is 5’4” to 5’8” and proportionally thin.

I don’t know anything about rugby or men’s field hockey I only know women’s field hockey. A neighbor and friend of my daughter was on the US team for years.
