Amsterdam Tigers

Jaap Eden IJsbanen

During the 1938-1939 season A.IJ.H.C. Amsterdam won the national cup. It was performed on the ice rink on the grounds behind the Hema in Linnaeus Street in Amsterdam East In 1940, the rink closed. That same year, the first indoor ice rink in use in the Amsterdam Apollohal.

Hockey in The Netherlands was given a boost after World War II by the Canadians who had helped liberate the Netherlands and in their spare time played hockey. Because of disappointing the public interest, this ice rink closed in 1950.

In the 1949-1950 season, the champion of the Netherlands Amsterdam IJsvogels (Kingfishers).
During the seasons 1951 to 1964, no Championships.

In 1963 the Amsterdam Amstel Tigers established. To this day there is
London hockey played under this name. Even the first team of the club, since the
2005-2006 season again as Amstel Tigers (and therefore not under the sponsor name).

Up to 2006 Amstel Tijgers consisted of an amateur and a pro-section, which were separate legal entities.
