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.
Ice Hockey has been played for generations, under various guises and with different rules, in most colder countries. The first organized game of modern hockey was played in 1875 in Montreal Canada.
The first Field Hockey club was formed in 1849 - Blackheath in south east London. I'm not sure how it worked as they had no one to play against.
a long time ago
Hockey was first played at the 1998 Commonwealth Games.
Hockey was not played during Shakespeare's time. There was a game called hurling that was played with sticks and balls on grass.
The regulation time on the clock for a NHL hockey game is 60 minutes (3 periods). If the score is tied, overtime is 5 minutes. Then come a shootout which is first 3 rounds, then if still tied, goes until one team wins. There are timeouts and such in the hockey game, so never is it 1 hour of actual time.
There is no definite time, or creator of hockey. It is said to have been invented by Canada's Natives, when they played a game similar to hockey called shinny. They played on a field with icy patches. Hope this helps!
(Please Note Ice Hockey takes its Origins from Hockey "Field" and Shinny but this will only be a time line for Ice Hockey) * 1843 - Kingston Ontario (Played By British Troops with Field Hockey Sticks and Ball On Ice) * 1886 - Queens University v Royal Military College (First Official Ruled Game) Time Line For Ice Hockey... Confirmed Please Feel Free to Add to the list
It is unknown. Hockey has been claimed to be founded in so many different time periods, that it is impossible to know how old it is.

In recreational hockey, many games are played under a curfew. In order to get the game done in time, sometimes it is played with a running clock (meaning, the clock does not stop for whistles). Stop time periods just refers to the clock stopping for whistles. Some games use a combination depending on the score of the game or time of the game. For example, my local rec league uses running time for the entire game except for if the score differential is less than 5 in the last 5 minutes of the game. This helps ensure the game will finish in the hour time slot.
