English Ice Hockey Association
England Ice Hockey (EIH), formerly the English Ice Hockey Association (EIHA), is the governing body of ice hockey in England and Wales. It was formed in 1982 and featured around 60 teams. EIH is one of several bodies regulating ice hockey in the United Kingdom, along with Scottish Ice Hockey (SIH), the Northern Ireland Ice Hockey Association (IHNI), and Ice Hockey UK, which governs the national ice hockey teams of Great Britain as a national member of the International Ice Hockey Association (IIHF). In 2016, support for uniting the associations under one central organization has been expressed by heads of each of the various organizations, but, as of 2020, there are no actionable plans to be executed in the near future.
