When was ice hockey invented

The origins of ice hockey can be traced back to the 18th century in North America, where indigenous Canadians played a game called "ice hockey" on frozen lakes and rivers. The modern form of ice hockey, however, is widely attributed to James Creighton, a Canadian soldier, who codified the rules and organized the first formal ice hockey match in Kingston, Ontario, in 1875. Ice hockey quickly gained popularity in Canada and spread to other countries, becoming one of the most popular winter sports in the world.
