Word origin
The word 'huddling' originated from the Old English word 'hydlian', which meant 'to cover, conceal, hide'. Over time, the meaning evolved to refer to a close gathering of people or animals. The concept of huddling for warmth or protection has been a common practice throughout history, especially in colder climates. In sports, the term 'huddling' is used to describe a brief gathering of players to discuss strategy, originating from the idea of coming together as a team to plan and communicate effectively.
