New Westminster Royals

The New Westminster Royals was the name of several professional and junior ice hockey teams based in New Westminster, British Columbia.
==History==
The first team played from 1912–1914 in the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) which was established in 1911. The team was notable as it was the inaugural champion of the PCHA when the league first started out in 1912. It would be the only league championship the Royals would earn. Their home arena was the Denman Arena in Vancouver.
The name was revived for a club that played in the Pacific Coast Hockey League from 1945 to 1952 and the Western Hockey League from 1952 to 1959. The Royals won the President's Cup in 1949-50 as PCHL champions.
The name was again used for junior A teams in New Westminster, who played in the British Columbia Junior Hockey League from 1967–68 to 1970–71, from 1981–82 to 1982–83, and again from 1988-89 to 1990-91. Future NHL star Cliff Ronning was a notable member of the early 1980s squad. Frank Biller, an ill-famed fraudster from British Columbia would also play for the Royals from 1988-90.

The Newcastle Jesters were an ice hockey franchise based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, England. The team were members of the Ice Hockey Superleague and played their home games at the Telewest Arena (now the Metro Radio Arena).
==History==
===Single Season of Jesters (2000–2001)===
The name 'Jesters' was the last of three used by the club during its five-year existence. The franchise was initially known as the Newcastle Cobras between 1996 and 1998. The team was then known as the Newcastle Riverkings for two seasons between 1998 and 2000 before it assumed its final name for the 2000–01 season.
The team featured lots of Finnish players during the teams season as the Jesters. The team had former Jokerit players Tommi Sova and Santeri Immonen, former JYP and Ilves goaltender Tommi Satosaari and Tero Arkiomaa, who was the second best pointscorer during the season. The team was coached by future multiple time world championship winning coach Jukka Jalonen.
At the end of 2000 the Jesters had lost four games in a row, and hired Canadian NHL veteran Bob Halkidis as a defender to boost their flagging fortunes. Mid-February 2001 saw the team at the bottom of the table, one point adrift of Nottingham after five successive defeats including an 8-nil defeat at the hands of Cardiff. By March 2001 it was revealed that the Jesters owed two months unpaid wages to their playing squad, who took legal action against the club. By April 2001 the general manager of the club was in talks to move to Sheffield. The Jesters were subsequently banned by the league from hiring new players due to the non-payment of salaries, but shortly before the start of the 2001-2 season Paul Smith, the chairman of the team, was still insisting that they would be playing that season. The club was then shut down.
Hockey returned to the area with the Newcastle Vipers who joined the British National League in 2002 and then became members of the Elite Ice Hockey League. The Vipers though folded in 2011.

Newcastle Vipers

The Newcastle Vipers were an ice hockey club based in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. Former members of the Elite Ice Hockey League, the club previously held membership in the British National League.
== History ==
The club was founded August 2002 after a season without a professional ice hockey team in Newcastle. Previously, the city was represented by the Newcastle Jesters, who were founded in 1999 by Finnish businessman Harry Harkimo who purchased the franchise from the Ice Hockey Superleague. 
The franchise had previously been owned byJohn Hall who had owned the club as part of his ambitious "Newcastle Sporting Club" project and known as the Newcastle Cobras and later the Newcastle Riverkings. The Cobras had previously played as the Durham Wasps who had moved to Newcastle Upon Tyne Arena following a season at the Crowtree Leisure Centre in Sunderland as a result of Hall purchasing them after a number of years of financial problems. The Durham ice rink closed shortly thereafter.
After playing its first three seasons in the British National League, the Vipers joined the Elite Ice Hockey League in the 2005-06 season. During their first season the Vipers finished as runners-up to the Belfast Giants in the league and won the EIHL Play-Off Championship at the National Ice Centre, defeating the Sheffield Steelers 2-1 in the Grand Final.
On 6 May 2011, the EIHL confirmed that the Vipers would fold and not take part in the 2011-12 season after months of financial difficulty, leaving the North East with no top flight Ice Hockey club for 2011-12. GM Jaimie Longmuir said he was "Incredibly sad to confirm that the Vipers will no longer participate in the Elite League following Tuesday’s meeting."

Niagara Ice Rink

The Niagara Ice Rink was one of the earliest ice rinks to open in London. It was originally built as the Westminster Panorama in 1881, and was renamed the National Panorama the following year.
It became known as Niagara Hall in 1888 and featured an impressive panorama of Niagara Falls. A new version of the Falls was later painted on, and was still part of the building when it was transformed into an ice rink in 1895.
The rink was a popular destination for upper-crust Londoners, and it hosted numerous ice carnivals, skating exhibitions, and the 1902 World Figure Skating Championships.
It featured a circular ice surface and was only about 70 feet in diameter. There was a small area for spectators to look on upstairs, in between the supporting pillars. The design of the rink had an impact on hockey played there, with chicken-coop styled goals being utilized.
Ice hockey was first known to be played at the rink in 1896-97, when six of the Stanley brothers (key figures in the early development of British hockey) played on a team that handily defeated the Niagara Ice Hockey Club. Niagara later won the 1898 English Club Championship.
The Niagara rink was home to the New Niagara Challenge Cup from 1897 to 1899.
On January 1, 1899, a team comprising three Stanley brothers (Arthur F., Edward, and F.W.), R. and J. Gossett, and Peter Patton, known as The Old Wellington Team,defeated Niagara 3-2. 
The Amateur Skating Club from nearby Hengler's Ice Rink played an inter-club match at Niagara in February 1902. The Reds defeated the Whites by a score of 3-1. Some players who competed were: Bruce Harding, W.A. Webb, Gerald A. Turnout, W. Strange, G. Mayer, H. Uthke, L.H. Turner, Alfred C. von Berg, and F. Siegle.
Niagara Ice Rink closed its doors late in 1902.
