This was the 1937 ice hockey season in China:
Overview
Two Polish brothers, Stanislaw and Michal Antuszewicz, played ice hockey for the Russian Merchant Club in Harbin, the latter, dubbed the "King of Ice", captaining the team.[1] Harbin defeated Xinjing (now Changchun) 6-1 to win the Manchurian Ice Hockey Championship, which was part of the Manchurian Winter Olympics, with the brothers scoring 5 goals between them.[1] The Merchant club had been champions of Harbin for several years running.
Dating back to 1932, Michal Antuszewicz had also played for the local Russian clubs "Депо" (Depo) and "Новое Спортивное Общество" (New Sports Society) in Harbin.[2] The New Sports Society team was formed in 1931. They first achieved success in city competitions, and later beat the Manchuria Medical College in 1933, and went on a triumphant tour of Southern Manchuria and China in 1934, beating the Manchuria Medical College, Dairen, Tianjin and a combined Tianjin-Beijing side, earning the title of the strongest hockey team in the Far East. It seems the "Komsoba" team was the same as the New Sports Society. NSS was mentioned to have beaten Dairen and Tianijin, and Komsoba, Manchuria Medical College, Tianjin, and Tianjin-Beijing.
In 1935, Komsoba went on a tour, beating Tianjin 8-2 on January 25, losing 6-4 and 5-4 to the Beijing-Tianjin team on the 26th and 27th, respectively, defeating the Tianjin Juniors 7-3 on the 28th, and finally falling 5-3 to Tianjin on the 29th.
