Field hockey at the Summer Olympics



Field hockey (also referred to as simply hockey) was introduced at the Summer Olympic Games as a men's competition at the 1908 Games in London, with six teams, including four from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Hockey was removed from the Olympics at the 1924 Paris Games due to the lack of an international structure.
