Junior hockey in Great Britain

Junior hockey in Great Britain consists of separate English and Scottish competitions, which currently range from U12 to U18.

A true national junior championship was first contested in England in 1982-83, after the formation of a national federation in 1981.

A U16 (later U15) British national championship between the English and Scottish league winners was introduced in 1985-86. A U13 (which became U14 the following year) national championship was added in 1987-88.

U12 competitions were first contested in England and Scotland during the 1988-89 season, as the Pee-Wee classification (formerly U13), was broken into two groups, U12 and U14.

The last national British championship to be held was in 1996-97. Since then, the English and Scottish champions have not met to determine an overall British winner.
