"Hockey" is played on grass. With sticks and a ball.

Not in North America and not in eastern Europe.

It is in the U.S.. My grandmother was quite good at it when she was in college, and
my niece has been offered athletic scholarships to several good schools playing
hockey. On grass.


Aviation/hockey trivia:

Amy Johnson, the 26(?) year old lass with ~100 flight hours who flew
her Gypsy Moth solo 11,000 mile from England to Australia in 1930 in
19 days, lost her front teeth to a hockey puck in secondary school,
IIRC.
