Two locations, both in Canada , claim the first organized game of hockey. Kingston Ontario, and Moncton New Brunswick, both claim the honour. The first game of hockey WITH WRITTEN RULES in place was played in Montreal Quebec, in 1875, by students of McGill University. They wrote the original rules that the present rules are based on. It is a Canadian game, for sure.

The publication "Kings of the Ice - A History of World Hockey" reports the first ever organized hockey game played( meaning ON ICE) was in Nova Scotia Canada in 1865. The natives in Nova Scotia played a version of the old English game hurling which was renaimed Hockey for the British officer that invented the modified version of the game known originally as Hurling.

According to this publication the only way a game using these rules could be classified as hockey was that it had to be played ON ICE.

Answer

British Troops played a form of Ice Hockey in 1843 in Kingston Ontario Canada and is credited by the Candian Amature Hockey Association
