Ice Hockey in Bahrain

You might not expect people to play ice hockey in a country where it never snows.

Nevertheless, enthusiastic hockey players have formed teams in Bahrain, one of the warmest countries in the world.

Leagues have been set up for both adult and junior players. They even play in international tournaments on some occasions.

Ice hockey is also played in other countries in the region, such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.
