  • The Ice Hockey Association of India (IHAI) is the governing body of ice hockey in India. It became a member of the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) on April 27, 1989. However, as of 2014 no teams from India participate in IIHF world championships. The current President of the Association is Dr. Surinder Mohan Bali. In addition to working with other sport organisations in India such as the Indian Olympic Association and the Sports Authority of India to develop hockery infrastructure and construct rinks, the IHAI is seeking corporate sponsors. In April 2015, the players started a crowdfunding campaign on BitGiving to take part in an international tournament. The hashtag #SupportIceHockey trended nationwide. In response to the campaign the team also received its first corporate sponsorship deal, with the Mahindra Group. The group's head, Anand Mahindra, tweeted that he had "decided to support these passionate athletes". Many of the members of the Indian national team, coordinated by the IHAI, are recruited from clubs associated with military units and regiments. The IHAI has however created programs to introduce the sport to a wider audience, for example through the Learn to Play programs that have been implemented in Ladakh and Kargil and soon will be in Delhi and Mumbai. As an alternative for players interested in the sport but who due to climate do not have access to outdoor ice rinks, the association will begin holding programs in in-line hockey as well. This will build on existing in-line hockey being played informally in Gujarat and Mumbai. In 2015, the Ice Hockey Association of India sent the men's national team to Canada to play a game against the ECHL's Brampton Beast. On the team's trip through Canada in October 2015 the team will also play the CWHL's Calgary Inferno, according to Adam Sherlip, the only coach Team India has ever had. The Ice Hockey Association of India is responsible for overseeing all ice hockey in India. (en)

Förutom samarbete med övriga idrottsförbund i Indien, som och , med att utveckla ishockey och bygga rinkar, söker IHAI efter sponsorföretag. Många spelare i Indiens landslag hämtas från lag med militär anknytning. IHAI skapade dock program för att introducera sporten till en bredare publik, till exempel genom "Lär dig spela"-program i Ladakh och med satsningar även på Delhi och Mumbai. Som ett alternativ för intresserade i varmare delar började man även satsa på inlinehockey. Inlinehockey spelas bland annat även i Gujarat och Mumbai. (sv)
  • Хоккейная ассоциация Индии является национальным органом, координирующим хоккей с шайбой в Индии. Представляет интересы индийского хоккея в Международной федерации хоккея с шайбой, под эгидой которой проводит турниры и участвует в международных встречах. На сегодняшнем этапе большую помощь в развитии популярности хоккея в стране, оказание помощи в получении хоккейного оборудования оказывают индийские эмигранты в США и Канаде, которые в своих странах так или иначе связаны с хоккеем с шайбой. Основным приоритетом в работе ассоциации является привлечение спонсорской помощи для развития хоккея, создание постоянной инфраструктуры и хоккейных площадок. Ассоциация планирует популяризировать хоккей с шайбой в каждом индийском штате. Также в её планы входит участие сборной Индии по хоккею с шайбой в чемпионате мира в 2011 году. (ru)
