Canadian Amateur Hockey League (CAHL)
League Overview 1899-1905 (7 seasons)
The Canadian Amateur Hockey League (CAHL) was an early men's amateur hockey league founded in 1898 under vice president Albert Edward Swift, replacing the organization that was formerly the Amateur Hockey Association of Canada (AHAC) before the 1898–99 season. The league existed for seven seasons, folding in 1905 and was itself replaced by the Eastern Canada Amateur Hockey Association (ECAHA). Formed because of a dispute between teams of the AHAC, it further developed the sport in its transition to professional, with a growing focus on revenues. The CAHL itself would fold over a dispute, leading to the new ECAHA league.
