Olympics Hockey - Introduction

Hockey is a family of sports in which two teams play against each other by trying to maneuver a ball or a puck into the opponent's goal using a hockey stick. Field Hockey, or Hockey, is a team sport in which a team of players attempts to score goals by hitting, pushing or flicking a ball into an opposing team's goal using sticks.


Men's field hockey was introduced for the first time to the Summer Games in 1908 London Summer Olympics with six teams, including four from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland . There was no bronze medal match for the 1908 Games in London. The event was excluded from the schedule due to lack of international structure.
