The Argentine Hockey Confederation ("Confederación Argentina de Hockey") is the official governing body of field hockey in Argentina. It governs the men's and the women's national teams and clubs competition "Liga Nacional de Hockey" (LNH) and "Argentino de Clubes". Other local competitions, such as the Women's and Men's Torneo Metropolitano are regulated by the Buenos Aires Hockey Association (AHBA). A large number of regional associations (more than 30) are affiliated to CAH, covering the most important provinces of Argentina.〔("Nuestras asociadas", CAH website ), 7 Oct 2014〕 ==History== The Argentine Hockey Confederation was established on August 26, 1908, formed by three clubs: Club Atlético San Isidro, Belgrano Athletic and Pacific Railway A.C.. The first president was Thomas Bell, owner of ''Buenos Aires Herald'', a newspaper by the British community of Argentina. The Confederation registered to Hockey Association of England (established 1875).〔("Historia del Hockey, I Parte: Una trilogía para la historia", by Eric Weil ), ''Todo Nuestro Hockey, N° 1, Buenos Aires, 1997〕 In 1909 the AHC allowed women's teams to join the association. The first team registered was Belgrano Ladies, that played its inaugural game on August 25 vs. St. Catherine's School, being defeated by 1-0.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Argentine Hockey Confederation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
