The Granite State Hockey League was a men's amateur hockey league based out of New Hampshire. The league started up in the early 1960's and was supplanted by the New England Hockey League (1967-1973).
During the first few seasons most of the games were played in the form of doubleheaders at the newly opened John F. Kennedy Memorial Coliseum likely accounting for two team not having indoor arenas in their communities.
