In ice hockey, the fences that surround the ice hockey rink are called as ______.
Boards
The question asks for the term used for the fences that surround an ice hockey rink.
The correct answer is Boards. In ice hockey, the low wooden or fibreglass walls enclosing the rink are called the boards, and the transparent panels above them are the glass.
The boards keep the puck and players within the playing surface and are an integral part of the fast-flowing game, since play continues off the boards.
A 'zone' refers to a region of the rink (defensive, neutral or attacking zone), not the surrounding fence, so that option is wrong.
The 'crease' is the marked semicircular area in front of the goal reserved for the goalkeeper, not the boundary fence.
'Spikes' are projections on sports footwear used in athletics and cricket, and have nothing to do with an ice hockey rink's boundary.
Hence, the fences surrounding an ice hockey rink are called the Boards.
