Ice hockey is a team sport played on ice, in which skaters use sticks to hit a puck into the opposing team’s goal to score points. The game typically involves two teams, each composed of six players: three forwards, two defensemen, and one goaltender. The object of the game is to score more goals than the opponent within three periods of play. Ice hockey is known for its fast pace, physicality, and strategic gameplay, incorporating skills such as skating, passing, and shooting.
The sport has a global following, with professional leagues, most notably the National Hockey League (NHL) in North America, as well as international competitions, including the Winter Olympics and the World Ice Hockey Championship. Ice hockey also has specific equipment requirements, including skates, helmets, and protective gear to ensure player safety. It is played on a standard rink with specific ice markings that designate areas such as the crease, face-off circles, and blue lines, which help govern the rules of play.
