British Championship

British Championship

:"See British Home Championship for the football competition."

The British Championship is the most prestigious ice hockey cup competition in the United Kingdom, and also the longest established ice hockey competition. It has been run under various formats and titles since 1930 and contested annually since 1966. It was originally known as the "Patton Cup", then the "Icy Smith Cup", the "Heineken Championship" and latterly as the "Sekonda Playoff Championship". Some contests were only recognised as representing the Championship retrospectively.

In its current format, the eight highest placed teams in the Elite Ice Hockey League contest quarter finals, the winners going on to semi finals and then the deciding one-leg final.
