HC Sparta Praha HC Sparta Praha ( eng : HC Sparta Prague ) is a Prague based Czech ice hockey team playing Czech Extraliga . History . Former names : The Sparta Praha hockey club is one of the most successful and famous clubs in Czechoslovakian and later Czech ice hockey history . It was founded in 1893 as AC Královské Vinohrady . Around one hundred years ago , the Czech Kingdom was going through a period where ancient culture was very popular and because of that , SPARTA appeared in the name of the club . Although the name of the club has had to be changed many times in its history since then , SPARTA has survived for more than one hundred years in the name . Modern Canadian hockey made its debut in 1909 and since then , the club , which was a member of the national league at the time , has been one of its most frequent participants . Sparta ' s greatest successes were reached in the years following World War II as it won two national titles in a row - 1952 / 54 and 1953 / 54 — under the name Spartak Sokolovo . The next highly successful period came much more recently , when Sparta won the national league in 1989 / 90 and in 1992 / 93 . This was a very special moment because the league victory coincided with Sparta ' s hundredth anniversary , acting as a kind of ultimate birthday gift . Another recent achievement ( along with two third place finishes in 1995 / 96 and 1996 / 97 ) was the Sparta ' s participation in the final group of the European League ( EHL ) in 1996 / 97 . After a few years of bad luck and less success , Sparta proved its high quality in the Czech extraleague in 1999 / 00 when they were crowned league champions . That victory ended up being one of five championships they would win during seven seasons . In addition to those achievements , Sparta managed to be part of the Top Four in the European League ( EHL ) again in 1999 / 2000 and acquired the greatest result in Czech hockey history - second place . Sparta has since then proven itself to be an elite Czech squad over the years as it has managed to reach at least the semi - finals in every extraleague season since the midpoint of the nineties . In 2002 , 2006 and 2007 Sparta scored another extraleague victories . Present . HC Sparta Praha is now a regular competitor at the highest levels of the Czech extraleague and is a playoff performer every year . Each season , Sparta plays a high number of games on home ice , which leads to the continuous advertisement of the club . HC Sparta Praha ' s home games are played in Tesla Arena which is the second largest hockey stadium in the Czech Republic with a capacity of nearly 14 . 000 spectators .
