A little history.
Streatham is one of Britain's
oldest ice hockey clubs, famous for the Streatham Redskins team which used to play to big crowds in the senior leagues. It all began when a group of Canadian expatriates started a club and won the English National League in 1934/5. Streatham was among the top teams in the country in the 1950's and again in the 1980's when the Redskins, under the guidance of Alec Goldstone, won a clutch of trophies including the English National League in 1981/2. Sadly the Redskins broke up in the mid-nineties but, with a change of management at the rink, they were reformed in 2003. We now have an
English National Ice Hockey League team, a
Women's team, five junior teams and a
rec team to keep up the tradition in South London.
