In the past, hockey was often referred to as "hockey on ice" to distinguish it from field hockey. The sport's origins can be traced back to various stick-and-ball games played in Europe, particularly in England, where it evolved in the 18th and 19th centuries. The term "hockey" itself is believed to derive from the French word "hoquet," meaning "shepherd's crook," which describes the shape of the stick used in the game.
As far as I can determine , the game played on ice has always been referred to as "hockey". According to hockey historians, the name might have been an English version of the French word "hoquet" (shepherd's crook) or the Dutch word "hokkie" ( shack or goal). The game itself probably combined elements of European games such as hurling, shinty and field hockey plus the North American native game of lacrosse.
Dita hockey, also known as field hockey, originated in ancient civilizations, with roots tracing back to games played in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Persia. However, the modern version of the sport developed in the 19th century in England, where standardized rules and equipment were established. The name "hockey" itself is believed to have been derived from the French word "hoquet," meaning "shepherd's crook," which resembles the shape of the stick used in the game. Today, field hockey is played worldwide, particularly in countries like India, Australia, and the Netherlands.
The first standardized rules of the game would be drawn up in the 1870's by formal Hockey Association in 1886 This game was popular among the ancient Romans, Greek, Persians and the Egyptians. In the first millennium BC, a game known as Hurling, similar to hockey was played in Ireland. There are many evidences to show South Americans played a game similar to hockey during the 16th century. The English used the French term "hoquet", meaning shepherd's hook, to name this sport "Hockey" in the 18th century. However, the game became popular only in the 19th century.
Short: A man called thomas Edwards travelled to India in the 19th century and introduced them to the sport. Long: Until the mid-1980s it was usually accepted that ice hockey was derived from English field hockey and Indian lacrosse and was spread throughout Canada by British soldiers in the mid-1800s. Research then turned up a mention of a hockey very similar to hockey, played in the early 1800s in Nova Scotia by the Micmac Indians, it appeared to have been mainly influenced by the Irish game of hurling; it included the use of a "hurley" (stick) and a square wooden block instead of a ball. It was most likely that this game then spread throughout Canada via Scottish and Irish immigrants and the British army. The players adopted elements of field hockey, such as the "bully" (later the face-off) and "shinning" (hitting your opponent on the shins with the stick or playing with the stick on one "shin" or side); this later evolved into an informal ice game later known as shinny or shinty. The name hockey-as the organized game came to be known-has been attributed to the French word hoquet (shepherd's stick).
The name "hockie" (now Hockey) seems to have been first recorded in Ireland in 1527 and probably comes from the French word "hoquet" meaning "shepherds crook". It's called hockey (Ice or Roller) because it is a variation of Field Hockey (Offical Name Hockey, formally known as Field Hockey). Some also say that in the old days, when hockey was being invented, they had to use the only part of the livestock that they couldn't sell at market, the boney Hock. The Hock is the horse or cow equivelant of our heel. The other more stupid version is that it was going to be called puckie because of the puck. But in one game a hawk flew down and took the puck from the ice because it thought it was a small animal. So they called it "hawk-y" or hockey.
The first recorded use of the word "hockey" is found in the text of a royal proclamation issued by Edward III of England in 1363 banning certain types of sports and games."[m]oreover we ordain that you prohibit under penalty of imprisonment all and sundry from such stone, wood and iron throwing; handball, football, or hockey; coursing and cock-fighting, or other such idle games."The word hockey itself is of unknown origin, although it is likely a derivative of hoquet, a Middle French word for a shepherd's stave. The curved, or "hooked" ends of the sticks used for hockey would indeed have resembled these staves.
Hockey was invented by British troops in Canada when they were bored they would get sticks and a ball (or a rock) That's how it was invented, it is Canada's national sport. Canada always wins.
Field hockey, in its modern form, was first played in the early 1870s by Middlesex (London) cricket clubs, particularly Teddington, as an alternative winter sport for those who didn't want to play football.
Hockey was not "introduced to Canada", it was first invented, or played as a game, in Canada in the late 1800's. Several areas of Canada have laid claim to being the site of the first game but no one actually knows for certain. For the best information on the origins of the game,I would suggest you read a good hockey history like Mr. Stan Fischler's Hockey Chronicles or go to Wikipedia and read various articles on the history of the game.
