I've had to correct Quizmaster on this too, but there is no sport called "Field Hockey". The sport is called hockey, which is played on a field, and there is a variant played on ice that we call "Ice Hockey".

Look at the Olympic list of sports for reference. For comparision, what most people refer to as football is specifically "association football", yet the sport as a whole is what we define as "football".
