The Philippines men's national ice hockey team is the national ice hockey team of the Philippines and it has been an associate member of the International Ice Hockey Federation.
History
Prior to 2008, there were no organized leagues and an unofficial Philippine national team composed of players from selected clubs participated in regional tournaments. Starting 2008, ice hockey in the country began to gain traction.[1] Federation of Ice Hockey League (FIHL), a national ice hockey federation was then established in February 2015 to govern ice hockey in the Philippines[2] making efforts to organize a formal national team easier.[1]
The FIHL became an associate member of the International Ice Hockey Federation on May 20, 2016[3][4] and by July 2016, the federation also became a member of the Philippine Olympic Committee. The FIHL's membership with these two bodies made them eligible to send national teams including a men's national team to the official tournaments such as the Challenge Cup of Asia and the Southeast Asian Games.[1]
The 2017 Asian Winter Games will be the team's first tournament.[5]
