The Association Algerienne de Ice et Inline Hockey are working on a partnership with Algerian football team USMA.
In particular two famous Algerian footballers, Hocine Achiou and Bilal Dziri, have taken an interest in the Algerian ice hockey. We hope to continue working together and build a good relationship.
Pictured below, Bilal Dziri, Team Algeria Captain Harond Litim, and Hocine Achiou.
September 2009 will see the first ever African Nations Cup of Ice Hockey, taking place in Johannesburg, South Africa, between the 19th and 26th.
We are pleased to announce that the Association Algerienne de Ice et Inline Hockey will be sending a team.
A fan who attended our game at Viry has sent us a video of Harond Litim’s penalty shot which tied the game at 5-5 in the 3rd period. As you can see the atmosphere was great.
