Ice Hockey Journalists UK (IHJUK) was created
in 1984 as the British Ice Hockey Writers Association
to promote the interests of the sport and its writers,
photographers and broadcasters. The name was changed in 2006
to reflect the growth of both the sport and the media
covering it.
One of IHJUK's main functions is the
awarding of honours to players at the end of each season.
You will find a list of all the winners by clicking
on the categories under Annual Awards.
IHJUK is the custodian of the only Hall
of Fame in UK ice hockey.
Personalities who are deemed to have made an
'outstanding contribution to the sport' have been inducted
into the Hall by a specially elected sub-committee
of IHJUK since 1986.
The biographies of the Hall of Fame
inductees, which you can read by clicking on Hall of Fame, were
researched and compiled by IHJUK members.
IHJUK have incorporated into their Hall
of Fame the personalities who were inducted into
the Ice Hockey World's Hall of Fame in 1948-58 by Bob
Giddens, the publisher of Britian's weekly ice hockey
newspaper of the time.
This website is the only place where
you can find the complete rosters of all the Great Britain
teams since 1910, compiled by member Martin C Harris. Click

For newcomers to our sport, Stewart
Roberts and Gordon Wade have written a brief history of the
game at Ice Hockey History.
