Note: * Possibly a Pre-Season Game.

Report

This was the first Ice Hockey League in Ireland since 1940, and as with the present day, was non-sectarian, with many players from the Nationalist Community playing for the North End Racers [9]. All games were played at King’s Hall, Belfast.

Balmoral Wasps managed to keep their unbeaten record intact until February, where they battled back from two-goals down with a five-man all-out attack to get back on level terms with Shorts Redwings.

Information Needed.

This record is incomplete, there are four, possibly five, matches missing from the results list, and possibly playoff/cup games too. If you or anyone you know can fill in the record I would be very grateful.
