The London Hockey League is a separate entity from the [[Men's England Hockey League]] and the [[Southern Counties Hockey Association (field hockey)|South]], [[East Region Hockey Association (field hockey)|East]] and [[West Hockey Association (field hockey)|West]] hockey leagues, and does not feed into the England Hockey League Conferences. However, clubs based in the south of England whose 1XI compete in the England Hockey League tend to enter a 2XI to play competitive hockey in the higher divisions of the league. These include clubs based outside London such as [[Oxford University]] and [[Canterbury Hockey Club|Canterbury]]. The remaining divisions are mostly made up of teams from clubs based in and around London.
The London Hockey League was previously a separate entity from the [[Men's England Hockey League]], but from the 2019-20 season the 2XI teams from the previous season were fed into the [[Southern Counties Hockey Association (field hockey)|South]] hockey league.
