Based at the Planet Ice Arena in Bretton (PE3 8YN), Phantoms will be competing in the National Ice Hockey League (NIHL) this season. The majority of home fixtures are played on Sunday evenings, with a small number played on Saturdays and mid-week. The regular season starts in September and ends at the prestigious Play-Off Championship Finals in April.
During the season, Phantoms will be both hosting and visiting teams from Hull, Bracknell, Milton Keynes, Basingstoke, Leeds, Swindon, Telford, London and Sheffield.
The core of the Phantoms team is made up of locally trained players who have progressed through the excellent Peterborough Youth Development Policy and will be supported by a further four International players from North America and Europe. In recent seasons, a number of Peterborough Players have represented the Great Britain Junior and Senior sides at the IIHF World Championships and Olympic Qualification tournaments.
Background
In 2002, the Peterborough Phantoms replaced the Peterborough Pirates and entered the English Premier Ice Hockey League. The change delivered immediate rewards as the Phantoms went on to secure a League and Cup double in their debut season and retained the Cup the following season.
The club pride themselves on locally produced players coming through to the ranks to represent Peterborough ice hockey and after winning the Knockout Cup in season 2007/2008, the team went on to achieve the unthinkable in 2008/2009, winning all three major honours and, in doing so, delivering one of the most successful seasons in the history of Peterborough ice hockey. The team most recently won the 2018/19 Autumn Cup, National Cup and Southern Play-Off Championship before finishing as runners up in the National Play Offs.
