On several BBC broadcasts of the past weeks there have been references to a world "Hockey Tournament" currently going on. Since every team mentioned has been from a tropical or sub-tropical country, I assume that in Britain (and probably throughout the entire Commonwealth, minus Canada), "hockey" is that strange, grass field, curved stick, lacrosse-like game played in the U.S. solely by muscular girls in plaid skirts at Eastern prep schools (I can see feel the avalanche of letters coming...), and the sport played with knives stuck to your feet is strictly "ice hockey", thank you.
