Scottish National League (1932 - 1954)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Scottish National League was the first ice hockey league in the United Kingdom. It was founded in 1932 by five teams from a single ice rink in Glasgow. The league gradually expanded to encompass teams from many areas of Scotland. It was suspended during the Second World War, but returned in 1946, and for the 1947/8 season was split into two divisions. These reunited the following season, and in 1954 the league merged with the English National League to form the British National League.
