Hockey is a sport in which two teams compete by trying to manoeuvre a ball into the opponents' goal. The ball may only be handled using a stick.

In many countries (including Canada, the USA and the Scandinavian countries), however, the term hockey is applied to a variant of the former game played on ice, using a small rubber disc, called a puck. The article on the former sport may be found at field hockey, while the latter one is found at ice hockey.
