About the Coventry Blaze Ice Hockey Club

Four-time Elite League Champions, playing out of the Skydome Arena in the heart of Coventry.

The Coventry Blaze are a professional ice hockey team based in the West Midlands of Great Britain. The club competes in the Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL), the highest tier of professional ice hockey in the UK.

Ice hockey is a massive draw. In fact, it is the number-one attended indoor professional sport in the UK. Across all spectator sports, it ranks third during the winter months, sitting just behind football and rugby union.

The Blaze have a proven track record of success we are four-time Elite League Champions. The regular season runs from August through to April, with matches typically scheduled as a double-header weekend. Expect one home game and one away game each Saturday and Sunday, alongside occasional mid-week fixtures.

The other nine top-tier clubs competing in the league are the Belfast Giants, Glasgow Clan, Cardiff Devils, Dundee Stars, Fife Flyers, Guildford Flames, Manchester Storm, Nottingham Panthers and Sheffield Steelers.
