Two teams fight to score goals by using sticks to hit a puck or ball into the other team’s net in the fast-paced team sport of hockey, which can be played on ice, a pitch or other surfaces. While hockey is sometimes played on grass or turf, ice hockey, which is popular in colder climes, is renowned for its speed and physicality. The game is exciting to watch and play because it requires quickness, accuracy, and collaboration. Hockey has a devoted worldwide fan base and a long history of skill and competition thanks to significant events like the NHL (National Hockey League) and international competitions like the Olympics.
