The British Men's Inter-league Hockey is a thug-fest. People from working class towns simply love a full bench-clearing brawl, and hockey is often reduced to this.
38 years ago, I had the opportunity to play there, but when I saw the level of stupidity on the ice, and that it was actually expected from the fans I politely declined. The stick to Hockey model does not apply in the UK.
I am not surprised the younger players are now similarly involved. In the 70's there was little to no minor Hockey like there is now, but it's not always about the game.
