Ice HockeyA Story by Ashley UnderdueHow ice hockey began and started.
Have you ever heard of ice hockey? Ice hockey is a sport that
men usually do. Well yes, women do play this sport too, but some do it in
different ways. I’m happy you asked, girls do it in finger skating or even in
just the regular way, or in ice skating.
Ice hockey is a team sport
when skaters would use a hockey stick. A hockey stick is a wooden stick that
the skater uses when he hits a puck. The puck is a flat, solid, black
disk-shaped object. A hockey puck is made out of vulcanized rubber. Vulcanized rubber is a chemical reaction with rubber or plastic
to cause something called
cross-linking of the polymer chains.
I bet you don’t know when the
first game of ice hockey was made. The first game of ice hockey was in 1875.
But the first formal game of ice hockey was in 1855. McGill University started
playing Ice Hockey in the 1870s. A former student at McGill University wrote
the first set of rules of ice hockey. The former student was W.L. Robertson.
After that Canada’s Governor, Lord Stanley of Preston.
Thats what ice hockey is, when ice hockey began, and how ice hockey began.
