==History of hockey in Malaysia==
The [[Malaysia Ice Hockey Federation]] is the governing body of ice hockey in the country. Malaysia joined the [[IIHF]] on September 28, 2006.<ref>[http://www.iihf.com/iihf-home/countries/malaysia/ IIHF.com - Malaysia]</ref>

The first ice rink in Malaysia opened in October 1975 and hockey was soon played at the facility. A championship was arranged during the mid-1970s, but the league folded after a couple of years. The sport developed slowly from there.

The [[Malaysian Ice Hockey League]] has been contested under various names (MIHF League, Dexion League, Subang Jaya League, President's Cup League, etc.) since the 2001-02 season. All of the teams are based out of Kuala Lumpur.

The [[Malaysian National Team|men's national team]] actually made its international debut way back in 1977, facing [[Singapore]] twice. They lost 5-1 and tied 3-3. Malaysia did not return to the international scene again until 2007, playing at the [[2007 Asian Winter Games]], recording a 7-3 victory over [[Hong Kong]] for their first-ever triumph.<ref>[http://www.nationalteamsoficehockey.com/malaysia.html National Teams of Ice Hockey - Malaysia]</ref>

Malaysia also participated in the [[2011 Asian Winter Games]], finishing fifth in the Premier Division. They have taken part in the [[IIHF Challenge Cup of Asia]] since 2008. The best player on the team is Ban Kin Loke, who grew up and learned how to play hockey in Sweden.

The [[Malayian Junior National Team|U18 national team]] participated at the [[2012 IIHF U18 Challenge Cup of Asia]]. They finished in third place with a 2-2 record.
