The first of the family of sports that are hockey were played thousands of years ago (many have since been forgotten or died out). Since we do not have records dating to those times we do not know for sure which team played first; they were most likely social teams, though. The first team/club to play the modern game was one from Blackheath, London in 1849; the modern rules came from those used by the Middlesex cricket clubs and the Teddington Hockey Club some time between 1850 and 1880 (give or take). Ice Hockey was first played somewhere between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries; like Field Hockey, this version has only superficial resemblance to the modern game. The first recorded games of the modern sort were played between soldiers stationed in the 1850s and were also likely to be just social games.
