"Redmen" is the name of the male sports teams of McGill University, which is located in Montreal, Quebec. (Its female teams are called the “Martlets”.) The Redmen are members of the Reseau du sport etudiant du Quebec (RSEQ) and U Sports (formerly known as CIS). The RSEQ does not operate a hockey league. The Redmen and other RSEQ teams play in the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) hockey league.

History

1881McGill

The team was originally organized in 1881 and is one of the oldest hockey teams in the world, In fact McGill students wrote the first official rules for the game.

Leagues

The McGill Redmen hockey team competed in the Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union (CIAU Central) from its inception in 1902-03 and its successor conference, the Quebec-Ontario Athletic Association (QOAA), from 1955-56 until the conference ended in 1970-71. In 1971-72 they joined the Quebec Universities Athletic Association (QUAA) once the Ontario and Quebec conferences were re-organized along provincial lines. The QUAA folded in 1986-87 and in 1987-88 the QUAA teams joined the OUAA, which changed names to OUA in 1997-98.

McGill also entered a team in the Junior Amateur Hockey Association which was the local junior league in Montreal.

During World War I there was no intercollegiate hockey in Canada. In part to replace it, McGill entered a team in the Montreal City Hockey League. It played in this league from 1914-15 through 1920-21, and again in 1923-24. Later on McGill joined the Montreal Senior Group in 1926-27 and continued in this league and its successor, the Quebec Senior Hockey League until 1938-39.

The International Intercollegiate League was organized in 1936 with both Canadian and American universities and continued until 1940.
