Junior Belfast Giants

The Junior Belfast Giants are an ice hockey team who play in the Junior Scottish Ice Hockey League. They play their games in the SSE Arena, Belfast Northern Ireland. The club joined the IIHL for the 2008-2009 season before moving to the Scottish league and they also field a number of youth teams.

They use the same name and logo as the Belfast Giants who play in the UK-wide Elite Ice Hockey League.

History
The Junior Belfast Giants were officially formed in June 2007 when the Belfast City Flyers and the Northern Ireland Ice Hockey club combined forces because they felt the best way to further the sport in the area was to form one strong club. Todd Kelman, General Manager of the Belfast Giants helped the club find a main sponsor and allowed the club to use the Belfast Giants name but other than that the 2 teams are not related.

Tesco provided the club with jerseys and socks for every player in the organization, funding for the club, as well as made 10 jobs available to club players working in its stores in Northern Ireland.
