In countries where ice hockey dominates, saying 'hockey' automatically means the ice version, so 'grass hockey' became the clarifying term for the outdoor stick-and-ball game. It's the same sport that's simply called 'hockey' across most of Europe and Asia. The label is practical, descriptive, and a small reminder of just how much ice hockey dominates North American sports culture.
