Hat-trick
A hat-trick or hat trick in sports is the achieving of a positive feat three times in a game, or other achievements based on threes in some sports.
==Origin==
The term first appeared in 1858 in cricket, to describe HH Stephenson's taking three wickets with three consecutive deliveries. Fans held a collection for Stephenson, and presented him with a hat bought with the proceeds.〔''Extended Oxford English Dictionary'' 1999 Edition : "It came into use after HH Stephenson took three wickets in three balls for the all-England eleven against the twenty-two of Hallam at the Hyde Park ground, Sheffield in 1858. A collection was held for Stephenson (as was customary for outstanding feats by professionals) and he was presented with a cap or hat bought with the proceeds."〕 The term was used in print for the first time in 1878.〔''The Oxford Companion to Australian Cricket'' (Oxford University Press, 1996) mentions that the word hat-trick was used in print for the first time in ''The Sportsman'' to describe Spofforth clean bowling three consecutive batsmen in the match against Hastings and Districts at the Oval on 29 August 1878. Spofforth did take a hat-trick and nine wickets in 20 balls against the XVIII of Hastings and Districts in 1878 (not a first class match), but the dates are incorrect.〕 The term was eventually adopted by many other sports including hockey, association football, water polo and team handball.
