I want to ice hockey one day but scared I may get hit with the rubber puck lol.
I would love to try it, I've never played either. Where did hockey originate?
I want to say Canada being that it is a winter sport and it is most popular there.

Teams usually consist of six players each but if I play I need one on one lol.
