Download or read book Hockey written by Stephen Hardy and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long considered Canadian, ice hockey is in truth a worldwide phenomenon--and has been for centuries. In Hockey: A Global History, Stephen Hardy and Andrew C. Holman draw on twenty-five years of research to present THE monumental end-to-end history of the sport. Here is the story of on-ice stars and organizational visionaries, venues and classic games, the evolution of rules and advances in equipment, and the ascendance of corporations and instances of bureaucratic chicanery. Hardy and Holman chart modern hockey's "birthing" in Montreal and follow its migration from Canada south to the United States and east to Europe. The story then shifts from the sport's emergence as a nationalist battlefront to the movement of talent across international borders to the game of today, where men and women at all levels of play lace 'em up on the shinny ponds of Saskatchewan, the wide ice of the Olympics, and across the breadth of Asia. Sweeping in scope and vivid with detail, Hockey: A Global History is the saga of how the coolest game changed the world--and vice versa.

Book excerpt: Sean McIndoe of Down Goes Brown, one of hockey's favourite and funniest writers, takes aim at the game's most memorable moments--especially if they're memorable for the wrong reasons--in this warts-and-all history of the NHL. The NHL is, indisputably, weird. One moment, you're in awe of the speed, skill and intensity that define the sport, shaking your head as a player makes an impossible play, or shatters a longstanding record, or sobs into his first Stanley Cup. The next, everyone's wearing earmuffs, Mr. Rogers has shown up, and guys in yellow raincoats are officiating playoff games while everyone tries to figure out where the league president went. That's just life in the NHL, a league that often can't seem to get out of its own way. No matter how long you've been a hockey fan, you know that sinking feeling that maybe, just maybe, some of the people in charge here don't actually know what they're doing. And at some point, you've probably wondered: Has it always been this way? The short answer is yes. As for the longer answer, well, that's this book. In this fun, irreverent and fact-filled history, Sean McIndoe relates the flip side to the National Hockey League's storied past. His obsessively detailed memory combines with his keen sense for the absurdities that make you shake your head at the league and yet fanatically love the game, allowing you to laugh even when your team is the butt of the joke (and as a life-long Leafs fan, McIndoe takes the brunt of some of his own best zingers). The Down Goes Brown History of the NHL is the weird and wonderful league's story told as only Sean McIndoe can.
Download or read book Field Hockey written by Constance M. K. Applebee and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field Hockey: Official Publication of the A. F. H In the autumn of 1901 the game of English Field Hockey was introduced and given a permanent place in the athletics of the American Colleges for women. Among the first were Vassar, Wellesley, Smith, Bryn Mawr and Radcliffe. So much interest and enthusiasm did the game arouse among the students that in one college alone 500 members were enrolled in the first hockey club. Although the game of hockey can be traced back to 1527 in England and 1387 in France it was only in 1875 that the "Men's Hockey Association" was formed and the game was placed on a sound basis. In 1886 the first women's club was started and gradually the game became the favorite winter sport among English women. This was followed in 1895 by the uniting of the various clubs in the "All England Women's Hockey Association," and from that time the game increased by leaps and bounds. "Punch," who is always first to note the swing of fashion, set his hall mark on the game and suddenly mixed hockey matches and ladies' hockey matches became the prevailing craze. While English women now regard it as "The king of games," in the realm of men's and boys' sports, in spite of the existence of foot ball, it is yearly taking a more prominent place. Both men and women play under exactly the same rules and mixed clubs are very popular. Although this hand-book is compiled especially for women, the rules and science of the play are precisely the same as those laid down in the books on men's hockey or mixed hockey. In the United States the game is pre-eminently a fall game and is not suited to the spring months. This unfortunately entails a somewhat short season, but in spite of this drawback interest in hockey is becoming widespread in the leading country clubs, colleges, private and public schools. So popular, for instance, is the game at Bryn Mawr College, that about seventy-five per cent. of the students play it, and each class has three hockey teams which compete in interclass games for the first, second and third team hockey class championship cups. Well does hockey deserve its present popularity and success, for it is a splendid, scientific and healthful game, and, furthermore, from the different work required on different parts of the field, it is adapted to all types of players, increasing in them all mental alertness, vigor and endurance, those necessary factors in a successful life.

Download or read book Hockey written by Michael McKinley and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2009-10-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback, updated with a new final chapter! Lavishly illustrated, beautifully designed, impeccably researched, and wonderfully written, Hockey: A People’s History is the altogether irresistible companion book to the CBC-Television series of the same name, airing in Fall 06. A must-have for every fan! Hockey is not just Canada’s national game, it is part of every Canadian’s psyche, whether we like it or not. Watching it, playing it, coaching it, and talking about it are up there with eating on the list of the top ten things Canadians do most. In the first half of the last century it mirrored our increasing confidence as a nation and in the last years of the 1900s, which saw an aggressive but unsettling expansion of the game south of the border, it reflected our growing wariness of American influence on Canada. Hockey: A People’s History, like the ten-part CBC series it accompanies, tells the story of this breathtakingly fast game from its hotly contested origins, and the surge in its popularity after 1875, when it was first taken inside, through the rise and fall and rise again of women’s hockey, the sagas of long-lost leagues, such as the Pacific Coast Hockey League and, more recently, the World Hockey Association, to the present day and the first-ever lockout of players by the one remaining league. In that time, while play has changed only slightly (every generation of Canadians has complained about the growing violence of the game) hockey itself has been transformed from a rough and ready winter sport to a business worth many billions of dollars, played by millionaires. But Hockey: A People’s History is not a business story, rather, it is the story of the men and woman who helped make the game what it is today. It also tells the story of all the great moments in hockey: not just the unforgettable 1972 victory against Russia, but victories no less glorious at the time, such as the Leafs’ previously unheard-of third consecutive Stanley Cup in 1949. Through its lavishly illustrated pages skate the players, the coaches, the owners, many of them still legendary, too many of them almost forgotten. They are the reason why Canadians have stayed true to the game.
