The Renfrew Wolves are a Junior A ice hockey team based in Renfrew, Ontario. [1] The Wolves compete in the Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL) as a member of the West Division. The franchise is owned by Jim & Natalie Seyers. Beginning play in the 2021-22 season, the team was relocated from Kanata, Ontario, when the Kanata Lasers sold the team to Jim & Natalie Seyers, a couple located in Renfrew, after the 2019–20 season. Before moving to its present home, now named MyFM Centre Recreation Complex, the team previously played its home games at the Kanata Recreation Complex. [2]

Contents

The Wolves were founded on February 25, 2020 after the owners of the Kanata Lasers sold the team after they decided to retire from hockey operations. The Wolves home arena, the MyFM Centre Recreation Complex, underwent significant renovations in the years leading up to the Wolves' arrival, with the project ultimately going significantly over budget and becoming the subject of controversy and investigations. [3]

History

The Wolves formed from the sale and relocation of the Kanata Lasers in 2020. The 2020–21 CCHL season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, the Wolves debuted in the 2021–22 CCHL season, making the playoffs in their inaugural season. [4] [5]
