| One of the oldest competitive sports, field hockey dated back to well before the Ancient Olympic Games. Although the exact origin of the game remain unknown, 4,000-year-old drawings found in the tomb at Beni-Hasen in the Nile Valley of Egypt depicted imageries of men playing a sport similar to hockey. The modern game of field hockey evolved in England around mid-19th century. The British army introduced the game to India and throughout the British colonies, leading to the first International competition in 1895.
