Ice hockey first originated in Canada around 1800 at King's College School and the first indoor ice hockey game took place in 1875, leading to the growth of professional ice hockey around 1900. The sport is played on a rounded ice rink and is very physical, requiring players to wear protective gear as they use sticks to move a puck across the ice. While popular in cold weather countries like Canada, the sport never caught on in warmer climates such as Spain.
