Oxford Ice Hockey Alumni
The OUIHC has ice many Dark Blue teams over the past 100 years. Alumni hail from varying countries ranging from Canada and Scandinavia to Australia and South Africa. Whether a collegiate superstar or ‘bambi on ice’; all alumni are united under the Oxford ice hockey tradition.
As one of the older sports at Oxford University, ice hockey has many distinguished alumni who have established prominent careers in their respective fields. Notably, several notable alumni are featured on our website both in recognition of their post-OUIHC success but also because of their contributions to OUIHC as alumni.
The OUIHC Network
The hockey friendships forged whilst at Oxford provide a home away from home. Yet, it is only too easy to lose touch after graduating. Therefore, a key OUIHC objective is to deliver a sustainable alumni programme. With so many alumni scattered worldwide, the club is a prime position to facilitate connectivity of our alumni members.
To this end, the OUIHC Network aims to reconnect all alumni and provide updates on club news and alumni events through an alumni newsletter distributed several times a year. Updates include future events such as the annual alumni match(es) which is held on Varsity Match weekend (typically the first weekend of March) in Oxford/Cambridge. In addition, other alumni matches that take place in other cities throughout the year.
Milestone events include the 100th Varsity Match in St Moritz Switzerland in 2018, the Women’s Blues 38th Varsity Match in Courchevel France in 2019, and the 2020 Varsity Matches which were held at the new Cambridge Ice Arena for the first time.
Please sign up for our alumni newsletter below if you wish to join the OUIHC Network. We would love to receive your stories and photos from your time in the OUIHC.
