Australian Hockey League

The national level of competition is the Australian Hockey League, which was made from the former Men's and Women's National Hockey League in 1991. It is a small league, with only a single men's team and a single women's team from each of the eight states and territories, but it produces excellent results, when measured by the performance of the national squad.
