Hockey

Hockey is a team sport played on ice or on a field, where two teams aim to score goals by hitting a puck or a ball into the opposing team’s net. In ice hockey, players skate on ice using sticks to control and shoot the puck, while in field hockey, players used sticks to manipulate a ball on grass or artificial turf. The game is characterized by its fast pace, physical contact, and strategic gameplay, with specific rules governing player conduct, scoring, and equipment used. Hockey has various formats, including ice hockey, field hockey, and inline hockey, each with distinct characteristics and governing bodies. It is popular in many countries, particularly in Canada, the United States, Europe, and parts of Asia.
