The slidey version of hockey is all encompassing here. Which I knew before Ros (and I) got into it, but I didn't really know.
Before this year, I'd only played the field hockey version, and my memories of it are of getting my fingers and shins whacked with a great bloody wooden stick. Not my sport at all. (At least for slidey hockey you're wearing so much gear it's difficult, though not impossible, to get hurt in a friendly game.)
