Hockey

First of all, hockey is the national sport of India. Many people think that cricket is the national sport because it's the most popular sport in India. Hockey is a game that was invented many centuries ago. It's played with a "Stick" that has a flat side to hit the ball with, it is also curved at the tip. It's now played on some sort of fake watery grass. But we played on cement. We learnt the basics of hockey in school one afternoon, I personally didn't understand much of what the teacher said but I still managed to hit the ball. Just when we were gonna play a match it started to rain, we played a bit while it was raining and then we had to take shelter.
It was a fun experience, I hope you guys get to try it too.
