Hockey exists in many different forms from Ice Hockey and Field Hockey to Roller Hockey and Road Hockey and has been enjoyed by thousands of players and millions of fans for a few millennia. Four thousand year old Egyptian drawings depict a sport similar to hockey. Although we cannot be sure of the rules of that game, the sport where players try to shoot an object into a type of goal using a stick has been around for thousands of years. Field hockey, as we know it today, was invented by the British in the mid 1700's, while students of McGill University Montreal, Canada began playing modern ice hockey in 1875. Since then the game has gained world fame and enthusiasm as well as an organized set of rules and an elaborate array of necessary protective equipment.
