Mödlinger EC
Mödlinger Eislaufclub (MEC) was an ice hockey team in Mödling, Austria. It was founded in 1928.
The club joined the Austrian Ice Hockey Federation in October 1928 and saw their 3,000 seat arena, Kunsteisbahn Mödling, open a month later. Unlike most rinks in Austria at the time, it was an indoor facility.
The club debuted in the Austrian Hockey Championship in 1928-29, playing in Group B of the 2. Klasse. They won their group in 1930 and were thus promoted to the top-level 1. Klasse for 1931. MEC spent two years playing in the top league before the championship was reorganized for 1932-33.
MEC was placed in the top-level 1. Klasse of the new Vienna Championship for 1932-33. They continued to play at that level even after the Liga was formed as the premier Viennese competition in 1936. The club won the 1. Klasse in 1937-38.
MEC participated in the Schlesinger Cup in 1929. They also took part in, and won, the 1930 Pokalturnier. The club fielded a youth team in the Jugend-Wanderpreis des OeEHV beginning in 1933-34.
After the German occupation of Austria in 1938, the club participated in the Kreismeisterschaft Ost – zu der Wien Niederdonau und die Steiermark for the 1938-39 season.
