We used to make fun of the football guys when they talked about how tough they had it. Our workouts were way harder (try swimming head-up butterfly laps wearing full sweats over your speedo) and the only protection you have are plastic ear guards on a nylon cap. Demanding game but very fun and requires a full skill set - eye-hand coordination, strategy, and strength/stamina. The bruises heal. Joint injuries from other sports, much less so.
