The 1914 English Club Championship was awarded to Princes Ice Hockey Club. It was their first title since 1912 and their ninth overall.

Princes defeated the Oxford Canadians in the final, played in April 1914, to win the Club Championship. The score of the match is unknown.

Princes opened the season with a 10-2 (5-1, 5-1) win against Cambridge University on November 15. On December 6, Princes beat the Oxford Canadians 6-2.[1] Princes defeated Manchester 5-0 on December 13.

Some other games involving Princes included a 12-3 win over the Royal Engineers and a 9-2 victory over Cambridge in December 1913. Princes also defeated the two sides 10-5 and 10-0, respectively, in March 1914.

This season marked the last year for a champion to be crowned prior to World War I. After the war, it wasn't until 1928 that the next championship was awarded.[2]
