The Iqaluit Junior Hockey League (IJHL) was a Junior hockey league based in Iqaluit, Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canada. The IJHL was sanctioned by Hockey Nunavut and Hockey North and was the only operation junior hockey league in either of these organizations.
History[]
The IJHL was founded in 2008 as a two-team junior level hockey league. The league is modelled after, and with the support of the Central Junior A Hockey League.
The first league game was played on October 4, 2008, a 11-10 win for the Iqaluit Stallions over the Iqaluit Raiders.
It seems that the league closed its door after two seasons. Poor player draw led to many game cancellations.
