Background - A sport played widely in Europe and Asia since the late 18th/early 19th century. More dominantly played by females in America, it is a sport played by both men and women. As the years passed, the equipment for this sport has evolved greatly. Known simply as 'hockey' in countries other than America, field hockey is often denounced as a 'girly sport', a predominanly lesbian sport, or as not really hockey. However, none of this is true. It is an olympic sport, and is among the top 5 most played sports in the world.

The Game - The game consists of two teams of 11 (including a goalie), trying to get the ball into the opposite goalcage. There are two 35-minute halves in collegiate and international play, and two 30-minute halves in varsity high school play. Field hockey is known to have alot of fouls, but most are called just to keep the game safe. Many different types of hits are allowed, such as drives, pushes, flicks, scoops, drags, chokes, slaps, and chips.

Equipment - The sticks are flat on one side, which is the only side you may hit the small, hard, plastic ball with. The stick may be composed of wood or of composite material, usually a combination of glassfibre, carbon, and aramide.

In reality, a pretty goof-ass sport. These weird lesbians sprint around a field, hunched over a tiny little janky-ass stick trying to hit a ball into a goal. Ridiculous. It takes no more physical prowess than a runner needs.

A team that was on the verge of losing popularity and being flushed down the toilet because of struggles, but only to have that be saved by the Great One, good old Wayne. The team basically became the Edmonton Oilers years after the infamous Gretzky trade in 1988. In 1993, the team had five players from Edmonton, or more, and went on to the Cup finals.

Ever since, they have been a pretty fun team to watch, especially with guys like Avery (the dirtiest hockey player on Earth) and Roenick (hilarious man who has starred in sitcoms and gambles off the ice, and did a chicken dance). They have been in and out of the playoffs. Hockey games are continously sold out in L.A., and California for that matter.

A sport invented (and soon to be played) in a small town in British Columbia, by a select group of grade 11 students (with nothing better to do). The game is played inside the halls of a two story school with the library on the first floor, and the lecture room on the top. The equipment needed is as follows: 40 hockey sticks, 41 blind folds, 2 volleyballs, 1 red bowling pin, 1 blue bowling pin, 39 red uniforms, 39 blue uniforms, 1 set of keys to all the rooms in the school, 1 CD of the song "Soccer Practice", 1 long ZapStrap, and 1 snake (can be a different kind every game). This game is played with the following people: 40 players, 2 referees, 1 person nobody likes, and 1 snake (yes the snake is playing). First the referees must lock one volleyball in the library, lock the other in the trap door of the lecture room, lock the bowling pins in separate rooms upstairs, play the song "Soccer Practice" over the PA system in a loop (it will last the whole game), place the all uniforms and the snake in the locker-room, blindfold all 40 players, and then blindfold the person nobody likes and ZapStrap his hands behind his back with the keys attached. The person nobody likes is set free to run and hide, while all 40 players position themselves at the front of the school. When the referees say "go" the players must make their way to the locker-room (which is located at the other end of the school (keeping in mind that all are blindfolded). Once making it to the locker-room they must ...
