Hockey Hall of Fame

In 1941, the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association (CAHA) appointed a committee to write a history of hockey in Canada, led by James T. Sutherland, including W. A. Hewitt and Quebec hockey executive George Slater.[1][2] In 1943, the committee concluded that hockey had been played in Canada since 1855, and that Kingston and Halifax had equal claims to be the birthplace of hockey, since both cities hosted games played by the Royal Canadian Rifle Regiment. The report also stated that Kingston had the first recognized hockey league in 1885, which merged into the Ontario Hockey Association in 1890.[3][4] A delegation from Kingston then went to the CAHA general meeting in 1943, and was endorsed to establish a Hockey Hall of Fame in Kingston.[2]

In September 1943, Hewitt was named to the board of directors for selecting inductees into the Hockey Hall of Fame, and sought recommendations by sportswriters from The Canadian Press and the Associated Press.[5] He was named chairman and secretary of the board of governors in 1944,[6] and the CAHA agreed to donate 25 per cent of its profits from the 1945–46 season to help erect a building for the hall of fame.[7] In May 1945, Hewitt announced that nine players were the first group of inductees into the Hockey Hall of Fame.[8] In October 1945, a special committee chosen by the board of governors named six "builders of hockey" to be added to the inaugural group of inductees.[9]

The Hockey Hall of Fame committee was incorporated in 1948, and elected an additional seven to its board of governors to give representation to a broader area.[10] Hewitt remained on the board of governors until 1950.[11] By September 1955, a building for the hall of fame had not been constructed in Kingston, when a group of businessmen from Toronto were given approval for a hall of fame building which opened at Exhibition Place in Toronto in 1961. A separate International Hockey Hall of Fame later opened in Kingston in 1965.[2]

Since 1990, he has been working in the tax service. For six years, he headed the State Tax Inspectorate of the Minsk district of the capital. For two more years he headed the State Tax Administration of Kyiv. From December 1998 to April 2005, Brezvin held the position of Deputy Head of the State Tax Administration of Ukraine, Head of the State Tax Administration in Kyiv. After the "orange" team came to power and the personnel revolution in the fiscal department, Brezvin remained the head of the capital's tax office, but without the previous prefix "deputy head of the State Tax Administration of Ukraine". Education: "Accounting in Industry"; Ukrainian Academy of Foreign Trade (2001), Education: International Law. PhD in Economics. Dissertation "Economic Methods of Regulation of Industrial Processing of Agricultural Products" (Institute of Agrarian Economics of the Ukrainian Academy of Agrarian Sciences, 2001). And in September 2005, after another large-scale "personnel revolution" at the top, he left the service in the tax service altogether. He returned to the STA in August 2006 after the formation of the government of Viktor Yanukovych. On December 24, 2007, shortly after the formation of a coalition government led by Yulia Tymoshenko, he resigned. On the same day, Brezvin was replaced as head of the tax administration. Since June 2010, he has been the chairman of the board of Ukrgasbank. In 2011, he was replaced in this position by Sergey Mamedov.[1]

Ice Hockey Federation of Ukraine

  • From December 8, 2006 to December 18, 2020, he was President of the Ice Hockey Federation of Ukraine.[1]
  • Brezvin was the president of the Ice Hockey Federation of Ukraine for 14 years (2006-2020). Under his leadership the country built or revitalized 20 indoor arenas and developed its hockey program internationally by hosting IIHF events, and domestically with the creation of grassroots for the game. Brezvin continued hockey's role in the community during the current war-torn years.[5]
  • Anatoly Brezvin was the President of the Ice Hockey Federation of Ukraine for 14 years (2006-2020), but his activities for the benefit of the development of Ukrainian hockey are not limited to this framework. Under the leadership of Brezvin, about 20 indoor arenas have been built or restored in Ukraine, 17 world championships have been held in different age categories. Thanks to Brezvin's efforts, the mass play of hockey in Ukraine has increased significantly. "It's incredible, but Brezvin has managed to highlight the role of hockey in society even in the current war-torn years, which is a great achievement in itself," Andrew Podnieks said.[2]
  • President of the Ice Hockey Federation of Ukraine from 2006 to 2020, Brezvin almost single-handedly created a hockey program and environment that would be the envy of any country. His ambition was enormous, and his ability to meet his lofty goals changed the culture of the sport in his country. Thanks to his determination, Brezvin created a strategy to build 60 new arenas across each region of Ukraine to ensure the game could grow and thrive everywhere. Some eleven of those facilities were modern, indoor rinks in the Kiev and Donetsk regions, while nine others were built through the private sector. Commensurate with these efforts, Ukraine hosted several important IIHF events, notably the 2011 Men's Ice Hockey World Championships Division 1-B, and 2013 Men's Ice Hockey World Championships Division 1-B, as well as several junior level events. But Brezvin well knew the growth of the game depended on the lower levels and grassroots programs. To that end, he established the Ukrainian Cup/Ukrainian Federation Cup tournament as well as a national youth championship, both of which helped to establish and build a foundation for the next generation of talent. Going further, Brezvin entered the Ukraine women's national ice hockey team into the IIHF World Women's Championship program while simultaneously creating a Ukrainian women's championship. After relinquishing his presidency in 2020, Brezvin became an Honourary President and continued his work in the game, playing a critical role in ensuring the safety of more than 2,500 players in 2022 during the Russian invasion.[3]
  • Brezvin presented skates, helmets and protective equipment to the young pupils of the Youth Sports School No. 2 "Sparta". Thanks to such gifts, playing with the puck will become more comfortable and safer. Brezvin noted that in recent years, a great history of Volyn hockey has been formed, because the pupils of the region are already performing at a high level. "The Ice Hockey Federation has established partnerships with several international organizations that help us with equipment and inventory." said Brezvin. Under his chairmanship, in 2007, the target program "Ice Hockey" was adopted, as a result of which 11 ice arenas were built in Ukraine. The list was supposed to be supplemented with dozens of new sites, but the plans had to be postponed due to the beginning of Russian armed aggression. He also started women's ice hockey in Ukraine. Since December 2020, Brezvin has been elected honorary president of the Ice Hockey Federation.[4]
  • In 2012, the 5-year cycle of the state target program "Hockey of Ukraine" is coming to an end. But it is already clear that it was not possible to fulfill even half of what was promised. As part of the program, 60 ice arenas were to be built. According to Brezvin, in fact we have 12 "new buildings" (at the same time, five arenas are still in the process of construction), and two reconstructions - in the Donetsk "Druzhba" and in Zaporozhye (and also still unfinished). That is why at the meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers it was decided to extend the implementation of the program for another four years - until the end of 2016. The President of the FHU acknowledged the acute shortage of ice in Kyiv, where, thanks to the "Hockey of Ukraine" program, you can only boast of a stadium on Shalette Street. Brezvin promises the capital four more ice arenas in the next year and a half. According to him, On the territory of the NSC "Olimpiyskiy" instead of the demolished on the eve of Euro 2012 arena "Ldinka" will be built. In total, Kyiv should receive 10 "ice stadiums".[6]
