History of Air Hockey, Equipment, teams, Rules and news

History of Air Hockey, Equipment, teams, Rules and news

November 12, 2021 By Live Sports

Most people may not remember their first time playing Air hockey, but chances are they’ve played it more than once. It is the kind of game that seems to pick up frequent players in the blink of an eye.

It starts with a round table for those who do not know how to play or what air hockey is. It has a very smooth table for playing Air table Hockey games.

History of Air Hockey

Air hockey was invented by the inventor of foosball, Edward F. Murphy, in 1954. It was originally called “paddle hockey.” It wasn’t until 1971 that it was renamed “air hockey” because of compressed air to propel the puck.

A group of Brunswick Billiards personnel created it from 1969 to 1972. The Hockey Players Association (AHPA) was proclaimed in March 2015 and provided air sports hockey players with an extra organization overseeing the sport of the games.

Some short history of the sport

A short history of the sport has given below.

Association name: AHPA (Air Hockey Players Association)

Genres: Table.

Players: two players

Skills: Dexterity, Agility, Hand-eye

Required: coordination, Reaction time

Air hockey games

The games are played using a standard vulcanized rubber puck. The puck is hit with a hockey stick and the rules of hockey. Air rules are the same as those that govern table hockey, except that the puck is shot with a compressed air gun rather than a broomstick.

Rules of Air Hockey

Some effective rules of the sports have given below

  1. The game must be played with the equipment.
  2. Players must wear protective equipment.
  3. The playing surface must be a smooth, hard, flat, horizontal surface, approximately square.
  4. The playing area must be at least a foot deep.

Equipment

This sports equipment has given on the post.

  1. Helmet
  2. Stick
  3. Air puck
  4. Air rubber puck

The sports puck is the same as the vulcanized hockey puck, but it is less dense and made of rubber.

Final word

The air hockey puck always goes in the goal. The scored hockey puck goes into the goal from outside of the playing area. It requires an air-hockey table, a puck, and two player-held in strikers.
