2023: UK sat 12th in terms of the biggest ice hockey nations (players). 2024: Early figures show growth, inc. 16% growth in women's game. 11th-12th in the world (players) and 5th biggest team sport in the country (fans). Lots more work to do, but the game keeps growing.

Often overlooked, ice hockey has the only pro league with teams from all 4 home nations. No other sport brings the UK together quite like ours. Only football & rugby union has more fans for winter sport & the player base is growing! One day the mainstream media will catch on :)
