Hockey is a team sport played on ice or a field, characterized by two teams using sticks to hit a puck (in ice hockey) or a ball (in field hockey) into the opposing team’s goal to score points. In ice hockey, the game is played on an ice rink with skates, while field hockey occurs on grass or artificial turf. The game involves strategic play, teamwork, and skill in both stick handling and coordination.
