canadamale Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 According to the 2013 International Ice Hockey Federation survey, there are 1.64 million registered hockey players in the world. The three countries with the most hockey players (in order) are Canada, the United States and the Czech Republic. The country with the fewest players is Andorra, a small country in Europe, where only 52 people are registered to play. Hockey is now played on every continent in the world, with 144 countries registered. Hockey is a very old game, and variations of it have been played around the world for thousands of years. In 2013, South Korea saw a 28-percent growth in registered hockey players. next to those games where they mindlessly chase a ball around, yes a suppose a minority sport to some hahaha just saying 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am probably way off Topic now jim but I will answer, they are 2 totally different games and can be played by either sex. In basket Ball the ball holder can Dribble and thus move. In netball the ball holder may not move at all and remain Stationary passing to other members who may move about, also there are dedicated Players for shooting the net unlike Basketball where anyone can shoot I know the Game of Netball better than Basketball as my Ex and my girls are all fanatics and had to live my married life to it at the time. BTW the word Travelling is a Foul that occurs when the ball Holder in BB moves without bouncing the Ball, My bad I should have said Dribbling and not Traveling anyway, I laugh out loud when I watch Mixed Netball games which is becoming quite Popular Such is my apology for my remarks to you mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
