Abstract

Article will deal with Czechoslovak hockey in the 1950s. The period is chosen because of the greatest decline in ice hockey in the history of Czechoslovakia. Disintegration is mainly due to the new state establishment, which after the trial of hockey players in 1950 let the entire national team fall. Politics intertwined with sport. The communist regime changed the formats of the competition, maintaining the status of amateur athletes, creating personnel ratings of players and practical control the entire life of hockey players. The highlight were the agents who traveled with the national team to all foreign matches.
