History (Senior team)

The Shawville Pontiacs boast a long and varied senior hockey heritage. The team first appeared in the Outaouais Senior Hockey League [1] during the 1973–74 season as a senior amateur club representing Shawville, Quebec. Their roots date back further, participating in local leagues such as the Pontiac League (1952–56), Algonquin League (1952), Upper Ottawa Valley Hockey (1957), and the St. Lawrence League (1957–1975) Shawville Pontiacs. After decades dominated by their junior-level presence, the Pontiacs returned to the senior ranks ahead of the 2025–26 season, re-establishing the historic name and colors through relocation of the Fort Coulonge Comets into the Northern Premier Hockey League (NPHL), marking a revival of local senior‑level competition .

History (Junior team)

At the conclusion of the 2014-15 season, the league announced it was re-organizing to be more of dedicated developmental league to the Central Canada Hockey League and renamed the league Central Canada Hockey League Tier 2. Initially, the league was to downsize to twelve teams (one feeder club for each Tier 1 team), however it reduced to 16 teams, eliminating 6 of the current franchises, including the Akwesasne Wolves, Morrisburg Lions, Almonte Thunder, Gananoque Islanders, Gatineau Mustangs and Shawville Pontiacs.

On May 24, 2015, team President officially declared the team was folding.
