I see Hockey as a definite possibility! I really like the idea for multiple reasons.
I for one am not averse to Regolith. Besides, it gives the "Water Game" crowd a "Frozen Water Game".

This is my other favorite. A football based game has all the engineering challenge one could hope for.
Passing and receiving for bonus point!
"Line play" for the defense loving crowd.
Fumbles and recoveries! Oh man, the list goes on and on.

Strategy geeks will wet themselves with all the possibilities to design a play book.

Kicking a Field Goal from the opposite end of the field would be a blast!

Yeah, I think I just drooled down the front of my shirt just thinking of the possibilities a Football based game would provide.
