Seasons

The 1960–61 British Ice Hockey season was the first season for many years that failed to have an organised league structure after the British National League was disbanded.[1] The costs involved for the teams had risen as a direct result of travelling long distances and the league had seen a gradual decrease in participating teams in previous years since the amalgamation of the English and Scottish teams during the 1954-55 British Ice Hockey season.
