Note the following distinction: one can be a (previous) champion of an event (tournament) without necessarily being the (current) titleholder/titlist. Hence the English term "champion" is only a partial equivalent of the French term "tenant/détenteur du titre". It is recommended that the term "champion" be qualified in English to avoid any ambiguity - defending champion, current champion, last year's champion, previous champion, reigning champion, etc. 1, record 4, English, - titleholder

The distinctiveness of a challenge-round competition is that the defending champion is not required to play before the challenge round itself and therefore, cannot lose in the early stages of the competition.

Essentially, a “one piece” composite stick is a composite shaft fused together with a composite blade. The joint created above the heel is then sanded down and the entire stick is painted in a flowing one-piece design so that it appears that the [ice hockey] stick is “one piece”, although, in reality, it is a two-piece fused product. 2, record 7, English, - composite%20stick

During 2001, the higher-priced segment of the stick market shifted from wooden sticks to the more technically advanced composite sticks. These sticks, which are made from a combination of various fibres, including glass fibre, carbon and aramid, have quite a few advantages over wooden sticks. A composite stick [for field hockey] is made in a mould. Once the mould has been engineered, every stick produced from that mould will have exactly the same design and will therefore be consistent. 3, record 7, English, - composite%20stick
