The play of Hockey was originated in India in the Ninteenth century, may be the Ice Hockey was invented later in the U.S.
Archaeological evidence shows that Field Hockey was played by the ancient Egyptians and Greeks. (Their is a frieze on display in the museum at Olympia that shows two athletes with crossed field hockey sticks.) As to ice hockey, it originated in Canada, most likely in the province of Nova Scotia. Neither version of the game was invented in the United States (or in India).
No one knows who really invented ice hockey, but the first recorded organized indoor hockey game was run by James Creighton, a Canadian university student, and took place at Montreal's Victoria Skating Rink on March 3, 1875.
