Lwowski Klub Sportowy Pogoń Lwów was an ice hockey team in Lwów, Poland (present-day Lviv, Ukraine). They were a member of the sports club of the same name.

The club played in the Polska Liga Hokejowa annually from 1926-1933 (there was no competition in 1931-32 - Pogon played in the Lwow regional Klass A).

Their greatest success was sharing the championship with Legia Warszawa in 1932-33. After winning the regional Lwow competition, Pogon advanced to the first stage of the final round. A second place finish in Group 2 earned them a spot in the final stage, where they advanced to the championship game.

Pogon and Legia were tied at zero after a three-overtime first game. As the players had work the next day, a second match was quickly played, starting at 1:30 AM. The teams were knotted at one apiece after another three-overtime match, and it was decided that the two sides would share the title.

Lwow attempted to qualify for the championship later in the 1930s, but lost their qualification matches on all occasions.
