Equipment would have consisted of a stick - in much the same design as some older sticks, with the traditional wide curve - and a ball; no goalkeepers, shinguards, mouthguards or safety masks back then.
Field hockey and underwater hockey are the closest.

You can't size your equipment, hockey players have different preferences. Some like there equipment smaller for better movement or bigger for more protection.
100 yards like a football field
yes in a way it is, but a field hockey field has a "dome shape" around the goal. and a soccer field's is more like a rectangle.

It came from India and developed slower in today's modern day hockey, as for sport like ice hockey and other types of hockey's came from Canada.
A sport that closely resembles hockey is lacrosse. Both hockey and lacrosse share several similarities: • Fast-paced play with continuous movement and quick transitions. • Use of sticks to control a ball or puck (hockey uses a puck; lacrosse uses a ball). • Team-based strategy, requiring coordination, passing, and defensive tactics. • Physical contact is allowed in both, though with different rules. • Goal scoring is the primary objective. Interestingly, lacrosse also has deep roots in Canadian history and is considered Canada’s official summer sport, while hockey is the winter sport.
