Alberta Senior Hockey League (1936–41)

The Alberta Senior Hockey League or ASHL was a senior level ice hockey league that operated between 1936 and 1941 in Alberta, Canada. In 1941 the league ceased operations due to World War II.

After the ASHL folded, some teams went on to join the Western Canada Senior Hockey League (WCSHL) while other teams merged with the West Kootenay League to become the Alberta-British Columbia Senior League for the 1941-42 season.
