National Aboriginal Hockey Championships

National Aboriginal Hockey Championships (NAHC) is an ice hockey championship established in Canada by the Aboriginal Sport Circle.

The annual tournament provides an opportunity for U15 (Bantam) and U18-aged Indigenous youth across Canada to compete for the NAHC title. Teams are selected and representative of each province and territory, with attracts participation from First Nations, Inuit, and Metis peoples.

The NAHC also serves as a focal point for grassroots and regional Indigenous hockey development. Both girls' and boys' teams are eligible to compete in this competition. The location of the tournament varies every year and hosting rights are determined by a bidding policy put in place by the Aboriginal Sport Circle (ASC).
