The Baltimore Hockey League (BHL), was an early and short-lived amateur ice hockey league founded in 1896 and existing for two seasons in Baltimore, Maryland, United States in 1896–97 and 1897–98.[1] The league included teams from Johns Hopkins University, Maryland Athletic Club, Northampton Hockey Club, University of Maryland and Walbrook Athletic Club and operated at the North Avenue Ice Palace at North Avenue in Baltimore. The teams played for the Northampton Hockey Trophy, presented by J. L. Filon.

The University of Maryland team won the championship title both in 1897 and in 1898. The 1897–98 season ended on March 10, 1898 with a 0-0 tie between the Johns Hopkins University and the University of Maryland.[2] The University of Maryland team was led on ice by brothers Milton Morris "Mickey" Whitehurst (rover, b. 1873) and Jesse Herbert "Pat" Whitehurst (goaltender and forward, b. 1874).

Other players in the league included psychiatrist Harry Cotton and Canadian-American astronomer Samuel Alfred Mitchell.
