Great Britain Students Ice Hockey

Directions Website

Great Britain Students Ice Hockey Teams compete across a variety of UK venues to support match experience and compete against NIHL and WNIHL teams in addition to international teams.

Great Britain Students is the national programme for university students to compete against other national university sides, including competing at the bi-annual FISU World University Games. Supporting the development of the best athletes through a dual career pathway, we deliver bi monthly training camps all year round alongside university studies for both our mens and womens teams. Camps operate from our base at Ice Sheffield delivering on and off ice sessions alongside other services through an experienced multi-disciplinary team of support staff.
