The Ottawa City Hockey League (OCHL) was an amateur ice hockey league with junior, intermediate and senior level men's teams in Ottawa, Canada. Founded in 1890 by the local Ottawa Hockey Association (Ottawa HA), the OCHL was created to organize play within the city of Ottawa. It is considered the second ice hockey league to form in Canada.
The senior league operated until 1945 and the junior league operated until 1957. Today the Ottawa region is administered by the Ottawa District Hockey Association (ODHA).
