The UCL Yetis joined the British Universities Ice Hockey Association in 2011.[2] The A team entered divisional play and rose through the divisions, winning the Division 3 title in 2012–13, the club's first championship.[2]
In 2014–15 the A team won the BUIHA Division 2 title and the Tier 2 National Championship in the same season,[2] then won Division 2 again in 2016–17.[2]
In 2025–26 the A team went unbeaten through Checking Division 2 South, winning all six games with a goal difference of +80 to take the title and earn promotion to Checking Division 1 South for 2026–27.[3] Ayush Lohia led the division in points (29) and goals (16); Ivan Taradin led in assists (18).[3]
The club runs three teams at different experience levels.[2]
The A team is the club's top squad. After winning the Checking Division 2 South title unbeaten in 2025–26, the team moves to Checking Division 1 South in 2026–27. They also won the BUIHA Division 2 title in 2014–15 and 2016–17, and the Tier 2 National Championship in 2014–15.[2]
The B team (known informally as the "Betis") takes players with moderate experience and those coming up through the C team. The Betis won the BUIHA Division 2 Non-Checking title in 2015–16 and the Tier IV National Championship in 2019.[2]
The C team (known informally as the "Cetis") is open to complete beginners and those returning to the sport. It competes against other London university teams and is the club's main entry point for new players. The Cetis won the Tier 4 National Championship in 2021–22.[2]

The London Ice Varsity is an annual ice hockey match between the UCL Yetis and the Imperial College Devils. It was first played in 2013 at Brixton Ice Rink, after both clubs were placed in the same BUIHA division.[1]The match has since moved to Streatham Ice Rink, which both clubs use as their home rink, which has a capacity of over 600 spectators each year.[1]
In 2014 the Yetis lost the match in a sudden-death penalty shootout.[4] Imperial won the 2019 edition 6–3.[1] UCL covered the 2017 match on its official news channel.[5]
