List of stick sports

Stick sports are games in which a long stick-like device is essential to the sport. Often the stick is used to strike or catch a ball or puck, but may be used for other purposes such as dislodging your opponent in jousting, a weapon in stick fighting or a prop in quidditch.[1][2] Sticks are specialized for each sport, but may fall into broad categories such as bats, clubs, cues or mallets.
