British ice hockey league champions
Encyclopedia
The British ice hockey league champions are the winners of the highest ice hockey
league in the United Kingdom
, currently the Elite Ice Hockey League
. Previously, the highest league has been the British National League
(1954–60), the Premier Division
(1983–96) and the Ice Hockey Superleague
(1996–2003).
and Scotland
each had their own competitions. The English League
was founded in 1931 with the Scottish National League
being formed a year later. The majority of English League clubs left to form the English National League
in 1935, leading the disbandment of the English League at the end of the 1935–36 season. The Scottish National League and English National League both continued until 1954. In that year the decision was taken to amalgamate the two leagues into one. The new competition initially fielded 12 sides in its inaugural season, four from England and eight from Scotland. The Dunfermline Vikings
withdrew from the league in early 1955 and at the end of the season six of the seven remaining Scottish sides withdrew, leaving the league with five members. This fell to four following the closure of Harringay Arena
in 1958 but increased again to five in 1959 following the admission of Streatham
. The league was disbanded following the 1959–60 season.
Following the closure of the British National League, no league competition took place in the United Kingdom
for the next six years. Instead clubs, some of which did not have a home rink, participated in rink tournaments. In 1966 the Northern League was formed. This league was made up of teams from Scotland and North East England
and was the country's only league for four years. The Southern League
was established in 1970 and was divided into the English League North
and Inter-City League
in 1978. The British Hockey League
was formed in 1982 with the Premier Division being launched a season later. There has been a British league continuously since then, although there have been three different organizations and the number of teams taking part has varied from twelve between 1993 and 1995 to five in 2002–03. The current Elite Ice Hockey League
was established in 2003.
In the 32 seasons in which a British league competition has been organized, a total of 40 clubs have taken part (although some clubs, such as the Ice Hockey Superleague's Newcastle franchise, have existed under different names). Of these 16 have won the league championship. The most successful club is the Sheffield Steelers
, who have won the championship on seven occasions followed by the now-defunct Durham Wasps
who won the title five times. The Cardiff Devils
and the Coventry Blaze
have each been champions four time. Of the other teams currently playing in the Elite Ice Hockey League, the Belfast Giants
have been champions twice while the Nottingham Panthers
, the only club to have played in all 34 seasons, have won the title once. The Murrayfield Racers
, a predecessor of the Edinburgh Capitals
, won the championship on two occasions. The Durham Wasps, Murrayfield Racers, Cardiff Devils, Sheffield Steelers and Coventry Blaze are the only sides to have successfully defended a title.
have had at least one team who have been British champions. Teams from England
have been league champions on 22 occasions, Scottish
sides five times, while Welsh
side Cardiff Devils and the Northern Ireland
based Belfast Giants are the only sides from their parts of the United Kingdom to win the league.
