While the exact origin is uncertain, "hockey" has evolved to describe various sports played with a stick and a ball or puck, including:

* Ice Hockey: Played on ice with a puck and two teams of six players each.

* Field Hockey: Played on a field with a ball and two teams of eleven players each.

* Roller Hockey: Played on a roller rink with a puck and two teams of five players each.
