Ice hockey is a game that is played on ice using a stick that serves as a bat to hit the puck. It is a team sport and requires many players battling against the opponent team to gain control of the puck and drive it into the opponent’s net. It is a full contact sport and requires players to wear protective gears in order to avoid severe injuries on important parts of the body.
Ice hockey is popular in areas where there is sufficient snow such as the northern part of the United States and Canada. It is also popular among European countries such as Russia, Finland, Czech Republic, Latvia and other cold countries where year round temperature can sustain the ice rink from melting. Since the invention of indoor artificial ice rinks, ice hockey has become a year round event and has gained worldwide following among ice hockey fans all over the world.
Water skiing is a sport that can be played either by one person or a very small number of skiers riding on a flat board that skims on the surface of the water. The object of the game is simply to gain a higher point against an opponent by doing difficult tricks or acrobatics on the water. Water skiing is a popular sport in warm regions where the temperature is relatively hot and the summer months are long. Unlike ice hockey, the players wear minimal clothing and protective gears consist simply of a life vest or jacket to keep the skier afloat in case he or she loses balance or falls into the water. Water skiing is not a contact sport and the game is based mostly on the level of difficulty and skill of execution of different acrobatics.
