The CUIHC is one of the oldest ice hockey clubs in the world. Its founding in 1885, only ten years after the first officially recorded ice hockey game in history, predates professional leagues, international federations and, in fact, almost everything else in the hockey world, making it one of the sport’s pioneering entities. Along with its Oxford archrival, the CUIHC is part of the oldest ice hockey rivalry in the world, culminating each year in the annual Ice Hockey Varsity Match.
In the Winter of 1885 the Oxford Blues and Cambridge Blues ice hockey teams travelled to St. Moritz to play the first ever ice hockey match between students from these historic Universities, the two oldest in the English-speaking world. The two rival men’s teams also battle annually for the right to hoist the Patton Cup, named after Major B.M. ‘Peter’ Patton, the founder and first President of the British Ice Hockey Association.
