The St. Malo Warriors are a junior "B" ice hockey team based in St. Malo, Manitoba. They are members of the Capital Region Junior Hockey League (CRJHL). The franchise was founded in 1963.

The Warriors have been a consistent competitive team but have only the 2009 league championships which qualified them to the Keystone Cup. Their second visit to the Keystone Cup was in 2013 when they hosted the tournament. In 2018 due to BC, Alta and Sask refusing to send teams to the Keystone Cup, the Warriors as playoff runner-up advanced with the champion Peguis Juniors in a Keystone Cup cross border match with the Lakehead Junior Hockey League champions and runner ups.

The team was a member of the Keystone Junior Hockey League until 2018. For the 2018–19 season the Warriors were one of five teams that departed the Keystone Junior Hockey League and established the Capital Region Junior Hockey League.^[1]
