This was the 1924-25 season in English ice hockey:
The Varsity Match between Oxford and Cambridge University was not played this year. Blaine Sexton's London Lions made their debut in 1924-25 and played their first games in St. Moritz, Switzerland.
Cambridge went on a tour of St. Moritz and defeated a local side 2-1 and the London Lions 2-0. According to Peter Patton, "The latter match was a re-play after the previous afternoon, for the reason that ten minutes before time, when Lions were leading 2-1, a sudden gale blew down and away the high boards behind one of the goals, together with the goal and the writer, who was in it, complete! Oxford lost to the Lions 4-3 after five minutes over time, but beat St. Moritz 3-1."[1]
On April 4, 1925, a team from London defeated Manchester 3-1 at the Manchester Ice Palace.[2]
