The Bahrain national ice hockey team (Arabic: منتخب البحرين لهوكي الجليد) is the national men's ice hockey team of Bahrain. Bahrain is not a member of the IIHF, does not have the country's ice hockey governing body, and therefore not eligible to enter any IIHF World Championship events
History
Bahrain played its first game in a 2010 exhibition game against Kuwait in which they lost 10–3. The following year Bahrain competed in the Premier Division of the 2011 Asian Winter Games. In the first two games they were defeated by Malaysia 25–0 and by Thailand 29–0. They finished the tournament losing all six of their games and placing last on the table.[1] In 2012 Bahrain competed in the 2012 Gulf Ice Hockey Championship. The team finished last after losing the bronze medal game against Oman.[2]
After ten years of inactivity, Bahrain returned to competition at the 2022 GCC Games, where they lost all three games against the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.[3]
Bahrain had the longest losing streak of 18 games and had not won its first game until 7 May 2023, they defeated Algeria 6–5 in overtime in their first game at the 2023 Arab Cup. Russian-born Bahraini forward Zakhar Zakharov, who played 49 games in the MHL with Sarmaty Orenburg, recorded his first hat-trick by scoring three goals, including the game-winning goal in overtime.
