The Eastern Canada Amateur Hockey Association was an ice hockey league in Canada that played four seasons. It formed in 1905 with six clubs: four from the Canadian Amateur Hockey League and two from the Federal Amateur Hockey League. In 1906, the league allowed teams to openly use professional players and in 1908 it was renamed the Eastern Canada Hockey Association. In November 1909, four teams announced that they were leaving the ECHA. Three of them created the Canadian Hockey Association.
