British Knockout Cup

British Knockout Cup

The British Knockout Cup is an Elite Ice Hockey League competition originally created to fill the void left by the demise of the London Racers in the 2005-06 season. The first winners of the cup were the Sheffield Steelers who defeated the Coventry Blaze on penalty shots in the final.

The format was a home/away affair in the first year of play. In the 2006-07 season, the format was altered with the final being a one off game. The 2006-07 cup was won by the Cardiff Devils, when they beat the Coventry Blaze 3-0 at the Coventry Skydome.

2008-09

The British Knockout Cup will be a 9 team affair this season, with Sheffield and Belfast competing in a preliminary 2-legged round at Ice Sheffield on the 25th and 26th October.
