Common team sports include ice hockey, ringette, broomball (on either an indoor ice rink, or an outdoor ice rink or field of snow), curling, and bandy. Based on the number of participants, ice hockey is the world’s most popular winter team sport, followed by bandy.
Winter Break: The winter break usually lasts for three weeks/one month from the beginning/middle of December to the beginning of January which also includes the new year’s holiday. Spring Break: Spring break is for two weeks from the end of March to early April.
College dorms stay open during short holidays such as fall and spring break. During longer breaks, such as winter break, dorms will shut down, only allowing students with approval to reside in the dorms. This is typically granted to international students. All students are required to move-out come summer break.
Most American universities have breaks between the spring and summer semesters and long breaks between the summer and fall semesters. I believe that all colleges have a 24 week break during Christmas and most of the time there is a break in March or April between spring or winter and spring semester.
