I don't know dick about hockey, but I would put football and baseball as 1 and 2 from experience. Baseball requires insane hand-eye coordination and reaction time. For football, it's mostly the hits and how physical every single play is

honestly take the coordination of baseball, and the teamwork and fluidness of the NBA along with the physicality of the NFL and you get Hockey.

I played football, basketball, and Lacrosse in HS along with swim, golf, soccer, and wrestling (wanted all those patches on the LJ). I havent played baseball outside like middle school and pickup stuff.

now Im a bit biased because I played Hockey since childhood and still do, but Ive never had any trouble with the other sports. Granted I wasnt collegiate or anything, but hockey basically translates to anything else from what Ive seen, whereas most sports only transfer a few skills over to hockey.

so Ive always felt it was the hardest because of that aspect alone. I dont think theres overall a hardest sport cause its always your competition that determines how hard any given game is, but I think the learning curve to play at any level of Hockey is going to be higher just because theres more athletic traits required than basically any other sport.

edit: F1/racing in general is probably way up there. Wasnt thinking about it until I saw the other posts but gotta agree racings probably hardest
