Hockey is a team sport in which two teams play against each other by trying to maneuver a ball into the other team’s goal using a hockey stick. The game is played on a field either outdoors or indoors. The field is rectangular and is 100 yards (91 meters) long and 60 yards (55 meters) wide. The goal is 8 yards (7.3 meters) wide and 4 yards (3.7 meters) high.
The object of the game is to score more goals than the other team. A goal is scored when the ball crosses the goal line between the goalposts and under the crossbar. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins.

Here are some brief descriptions of the other options:
- Handball is a team sport in which two teams of seven players each try to throw a ball into the other team’s goal. The game is played on a court 40 meters long and 20 meters wide. The goal is 3 meters wide and 2 meters high.
- Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of eleven players on a field at the centre of which is a 22-yard (20-metre) pitch with a wicket at each end, each comprising two bails balanced on three stumps. The game proceeds when a player on the fielding team, called the bowler, “bowls” (propels) the ball from one end of the pitch towards the wicket at the other end. The batting side has one player at each end of the pitch, with the player at the opposite end of the pitch from the bowler aiming to strike the ball with a bat. The batting side scores runs when either the bowler unfairly bowls the ball to either side of the wicket (unfairly throwing the ball is called a “wide”), or alternatively when either the ball reaches the boundary of the field or when a run is completed. The fielding side’s aim is to prevent run-scoring and dismiss each player (so they are “out”, and are said to have “lost their wicket”). Means of dismissal include being bowled, when the ball hits the wicket and dislodges the bails, being caught, when a fielder catches the ball after it has been hit by the bat, being run out, when the fielder hits the wicket with the ball before the batter reaches the crease at the opposite end of the pitch, and stumped, when the wicket-keeper hits the wicket with the ball before the batter reaches the crease at the opposite end of the pitch.
- Judo is a Japanese martial art that uses both grappling and throwing techniques to subdue an opponent. It was developed in the late 19th century by Jigoro Kano, who combined the techniques of various other martial arts, including jujitsu, into a single system. Judo is now practiced by millions of people around the world, both for its physical and mental benefits.
