The game continued to grow in popularity and became so popular that
Montreal offered the first World Championship of Ice Hockey in 1883.
European hockey continued to grow at the college level while a number of
universities formed fierce rivalries.
Some dramatic rule changes were applied that helped progress the game to
a field of eleven players while hockey equipment began to evolve as
well. The use of safety equipment to include pads, helmets, mouth pieces
and protective eye shields have dramatically improved from the early
days of hockey history. It was not uncommon to not even wear head gear
until the last few decades.For all those who are NHL fans and are

The international appeal of hockey grew tremendously due to the Olympic
Games. It was first played at the Games in 1924 and only allowed male
teams. Canada was a safe bet to win the gold medal as they won the first
six out of seven golds. From the mid fifties to the eighties the Soviet
Union dominated. Although the US won its first gold medal in hockey
history in1960 it was the 1980 Miracle on Ice where our college
amateur team went on to beat the heavily favored Russians that spurred a
growth in Americas appetite for hockey.
The NHL as we know it today was formed in 1917 and consists of 30 teams
24 of which are from America and the remainder in Canada. The bulk of
the players come from Canada, Europe and America. There is also an
International Association called the International Hockey Federation
which was formed in 1908 and continues today by hosting some of the
largest international ice hockey tournaments. These two organizations
have helped to form and govern hockey as we know it today. The sport has
grown a lot from twigs and balls to a major international activity that
produces billions in revenue each year and has some of the most amazing
athletes on the planet, so goes the history of hockey.
