Abstract: A hockey puck includes three separate generally pie-shaped inner core segments, a pair of protuberances on each of a pair of opposite sides of each inner core segment, and an outer enclosure generally cylindrical in configuration and defining three pie-shaped compartments that respectively surround and separately contain the inner core segments in spaced relations from one another. The outer enclosure has pairs of apertures in each of a pair of opposite faces thereof such that the pairs of protuberances on opposite sides of the inner core segments protrude through the pairs of apertures in opposite directions and substantially the same distance outwardly from the opposite faces of the outer enclosure so as to define glider elements protruding from the opposite faces of the outer enclosure for slidably engaging a hockey playing surface and supporting the outer enclosure and inner core segments in a spaced relationship above the hockey playing surface.
