Le hockey féminin au Danemark

Thank you very much to John Christiansen for going to the trouble of getting this information on women's hockey in Denmark for me. John maintains the Danish Hockey Homepage which contains information about men's hockey in Denmark, and when I asked him if he would mind finding some information about women's hockey in Denmark, he kindly agreed ... and apparently had to go to a lot of trouble to get the information! Thanks John!

International Hockey

    Danish Women's Hockey Leagues:

    There are about 400 active players in the country. All teams are from private clubs. No school teams. Only one club, Herlev, has enough players to have two teams in the division. All other teams are only represented with one team. The ages on the team varies from ~12 to 49 (The oldest that I know of at the moment). Everyone plays together, there are no aged-determined teams in Denmark, because there are too few players.

    There are two women's hockey divisions in Denmark, one with 7 teams and the other with 6 teams. At the end of each season, the top three teams from each league compete in the National Championship. Here are the teams in the two Danish leagues:

    Sjaellands Ishockey Union (SIU)

    Jysk Ishockey Union (JIU)

    The Danish Women's Nationals took place at Herlev Sk=F8jtehal, Denmark on March 1-3, 1996. The top three from each division competed in an everybody-meets-everybody (round robin) system. The following six teams qualified for the 1996 Danish National Championship:
