description Quad Roller Hockey Overview
Quad roller hockey, also known as rink hockey, is a team sport played on traditional quad roller skates using a hard ball rather than a puck. Two teams of five skaters use curved wooden sticks to move the ball and score in the opposing team's goal. Unlike inline roller hockey, this variant is strictly non-contact and requires a smooth, hard surface, usually a rink or polished concrete. The sport is particularly popular in Latin European and South American countries, notably Spain, Portugal, and Argentina.
