    There are different variations of the game, so hockey is for everyone, regardless of age, ability or gender. There's also a real social side, with a culture of team bonding off the field.

    It is very common to have two or more generations of a family in one team and is the country's most gender-equal sport.

    After Team GB women won Gold in Rio, 10,000 people picked up a stick at their local hockey club.
