''See also: [[Other Indian Championships]], [[CEC Ice Hockey Championship]]''
There was an ice hockey tournament staged in Kargil in January 2009.<ref>[http://hockeyvolunteer.blogspot.com/2009/01/ice-hockey-in-ladakh-part-2-kargil.html Ice Hockey in Ladakh, Part 2: Kargil Tournament]</ref> A team of foreigners, known as "Vermont, USA" won the tournament. The "Vermont" team won the first game 10-2, the second 9-1, and the finals 9-0.


There was some controversy about which team got to meet Vermont in the finals. In the previous game, a goal dispute had to be broken up by the local police. A team felt they had scored a goal, which was called off, and the team protested the game, which never finished. This dispute lasted for a full 24 hours, requiring mediation from local officials. The dispute was resolved the following day, with the goal being disallowed and the teams playing less than 5 minutes to resolve their match. The mini-game ended with no score, and the game ended the way the dispute began. The team that had been complaining refused to pay their entry fee as a result. They had lost to our team, and were not in the finals. Originally, the Vermont team was going to play SECMOL boys in the men's final, even though they hadn't played a single game in the tournament. After the disputed game was resolved, Vermont played the winner of this game after hours of delay.

A February 2009 blog post noted the following: "For almost a decade now, members of the Canadian High Commission (Embassy) in Delhi have been coming up to Leh, Ladakh in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. They have been participating in a friendly tournament, the Indo-Canadian Friendship Cup, with local hockey teams, and have been bonding over the sport of ice hockey in the only region in India where ice forms naturally."
The final match between the Canadian team and a Jammu & Kashmir All-Star team was not completed due to poor weather conditions. The game was stopped in the second period with the score tied.

Ice hockey is a popular sport in Ladakh and particularly during the winter, the local youth take to the game as their favourite occupation. The sports is held on frozen water bodies during winter.

  1. IIHF listed Rimo Club Leh as Indian national champions for 2007. It appears they earned this honor by winning the Inter-Club Championship, which was likely held in lieu of the official National Championship.
