Friction is important for all sports.
Without it it becomes really hard to accelerate or deaccelerate.
For example a 100m sprinter.
It would be great for him if there wasnt any air resistance (as long as he can breath).
But he needs friction on the floor to push himself forward.
however friction is less useful in hockey, skiing, and almost all types of boarding(Snowboarding, wakeboarding, kneeboarding, sandboarding).
There is not a sport in which friction is not useful. In hockey, for example, there seems to be no need for friction. However, in order to get moving or stand at all, the players rely of the friction between their skates and the ice. The friction between their skates and the ice also creates a thin layer of water while they skate, allowing them to glide over the ice. even chess relies on friction so the pieces do not move off the board.
Sandpaper is high in friction but is not considered useful in terms of being helpful in a general sense.
stopping cars Friction is useful to start a fire with sticks.
Oh, dude, low friction and not useful? That's like asking for a list of things that are as exciting as watching paint dry. How about a feather in a vacuum, a sloth on a treadmill, and a banana peel on a frictionless surface? You're welcome for those thrilling suggestions.
When you drive a car and stop it is because of friction you stopped. If there was no friction your car won't stop and will slide. Friction also helps with waking, if there was no friction with every step you take you would slip. Friction lets your foot stay in one spot while you move the other foot. Ice has no friction so it is hard to walk on and hard to brake on (if driving a car.)

Ice skating does not require any friction because the skater needs to glide on the ice and if there was any friction on ice the skater would have trouble to skate smoothly on the ice. That is why ice skating does not require any friction at all from my perspective.
Brakes are meant to have a lot of friction and it's useful.

Friction is sometimes not useful as when a player drives forward in a wet condition the ball slows down due to the friction so it is harder to control and difficult to get a shot away. Also a player can lose momentum during fast strides or slip in wet conditions. The ball will slow down because of the friction with the grass so it is easier for the goalkeeper to save it.
the friction from pushing the hull through the water is not useful as long as you're travelling.
It can be useful when a ball is catching
