Streatham Ice Hockey Club in South London is one of the oldest clubs in the UK, established in 1932. Originally founded in 1932 as Streatham, the name Redskins was added in 1974. During the 1980s, we were one of the leading teams in the British Hockey League. During the 2015/16 season, we formalised a decision that had been on the cards for some time by dropping the Redskins part of the name.
We are one of the oldest British ice hockey teams still in existence.

The first Hockey Club was undoubtedly Blackheath. According to the book “Hockey” written in 1899 by P.A. Robson and J. Nicholson-Smith, this club was formed not later than the year 1840.
Teddington HC, who mark 150 years this season but have put celebrations on hold, have the rightful claim to the accolade over Blackheath, according to research by The Hockey Paper. According to Marcus Wardle, archivist at the Hockey Museum, Teddington are the founders of modern hockey since they formalised the rules and the way the game is played back in 1871.
