Ice Hockey
Read a short passage about a fast-paced game played on ice where teams use sticks to hit a puck into the opponent’s goal.
Ice hockey is a sport played on ice. It is popular in cold countries. Players skate on ice and try to score goals. They hit a puck into the other team's net. Each team has six players: five skaters and one goalie.
Ice hockey started in Canada in the late 1800s. The first indoor game was in Montreal in 1875. The sport became popular and spread to other countries. Now, ice hockey is in the Winter Olympics and many leagues like the NHL.
Ice hockey is played in a rink. The rink is an ice surface, 60 meters long and 30 meters wide. Players wear gear to stay safe. They use helmets, pads, gloves, and skates. The puck is a hard rubber disc, about 7.5 centimeters wide. Players use sticks to move and shoot the puck.
