, which wants to build on the successful representation of the town of Humenné in senior hockey. After the announcement of the end of
MHK Humenné, members of the new HC 19 Humenné club on behalf of MHK completed the previous
2018/2019 season, where we exemplary represented the city of Humenné in
St. Nicolaus I. Men's League. After the maximum possible effort to maintain the premier league license, with the promise of the president of
SZĽH, we did not succeed and the club after all legislative procedures to register the club as a new member of the association, will have to start in the
2nd men's league. The primary goal of the project is to develop hockey in the city and thus support the meaningful use of free time and offer the opportunity for the sporting public to attend a quality sporting event. The secondary goal will be to build on the youth sports process to make it easier for the best players to switch to men's hockey in their hometown. It is important to have a real role model for hockey youth in their sport close to home. Club HC 19 Humenné is a civic association. The chairman of the association is Peter Ždiňak, the vice-chairman is Mikuláš Koščo and the members are Tomáš Šudík and Peter Mižák.
