The British Hockey League was between 1982 and 1996, the highest league in ice hockey in Great Britain. When the League was introduced in 1982, it replaced three previously existing regional leagues Inter- City League of the South of England, English League North of Northern England and Northern League from Scotland. The BHL had a main and title sponsor with the Dutch brewer Heineken. Therefore, the league was known as the Heineken League.
