There are many levels where many different people around the world can play hockey. The two major sections that I will discuss are between youth and adult players. Youth is played between the ages of four to 16. After playing in youth, players can play in adult leagues if they play well and have leadership to take their skill to the next level. Adult is played between the ages of 18 and up, until they can no longer physically play hockey. This can be on a professional an national level or a simple and regional level.
