SAUDI TURF TEAM FOARMS OF HOCKEY

SAUDI TURF TEAM FORMS OF HOCKEY




Other games derived from hockey or its predecessors include the following:

Box Hockey being played in Miami, Florida, 1935

Air hockey is played indoors with a puck on an air-cushion table.

Beach hockey, a variation of street hockey, is a common sight on Southern California beaches.

Ball hockey is played in a gym using sticks and a ball, often a tennis ball with the felt removed.

Box hockey is a schoolyard game played by two people. The object of the game is to move a hockey puck from the center of the box out through a hole placed at the end of the box (known as the goal).

 The players kneel facing one another on either side of the box, and each attempts to move the puck to the hole on their left.

Broomball is played on an ice hockey rink, but with a ball instead of a puck and a "broom" (actually a stick with a small plastic implement on the end) in place of the ice hockey stick. Instead of skates, special shoes are used that have very soft rubbery soles to maximize grip while running around.

Deck hockey is traditionally played by the Royal Navy on ships' decks, using short wooden L-shaped sticks.

Floor hockey is a form of hockey played on foot, on a flat, smooth floor surface, usually indoors in gymnasiums or similar spaces.

Floorball is a form of hockey played in a gymnasium or in a sports hall. A whiffle ball is used instead of a plastic ball, and the sticks are only one meter long and made from composite materials.

Foot hockey or sock hockey is played using a bald tennis ball or rolled-up pair of socks and using only the feet. It is popular in elementary schools in the winter.
