Introduction

The International Charity Ice Hockey Tournament, once known as the OK Cup, is an annual charity ice hockey tournament hosted by the Bangkok Flying Farangs ice hockey team and Jamcomb Sports. The tournament raises money for Father Joseph Maier's Human Development Center.

To date, the tournament has raised over 4 million baht in donations. In a continuing effort to raise even more funds for this worthy cause, the Flying Farangs are looking to obtain sponsorship for the 2010 tournament. This is an opportunity for organizations to use this event to promote their company and to contribute to a local charity and to the local community (there will be at least 4 Thai teams playing all of which consist of only Thai players).

Ice Hockey in Thailand

Though ice hockey has been played in Thailand for over 30 years, it is in the past 5 years that the game has seen tremendous growth. 1999 was the first year of the Bangkok Hockey league which consisted of 5 teams. The 2000 version saw 10 teams of Thai players and one ex-pat team vie for the championships. With the closing of the Samrog Ice Rink, the league was temporarily suspeneded. Now with playing time available to hockey players at Imperial World Samron open again, the Thai World Ice Hockey League is entering it's fourth year of operations with five teams evenly matched with a mix of Thai and International skaters. The TWHL will take a mid-season break during the Charity Tournament. Thais really enjoy the fast action and the physical contact. There are tournaments held each year in Hong Kong, Manila,Singapore, Malaysia, Dubai, Mongolia and Bangkok. Hockey in Thailand was recently featured on the Asia Sports Show on Star Sports. There have also been stories in Metro Magazine, The Big Chili, Guide to Bangkok, Bangkok Post, the National Post in Canada and in the Zingasia website.
