The Richmond Renegades are a 2006 SPHL ice hockey expansion franchise in Richmond, Virginia. The team, owned by Allan Harvie, the founder of the former ECHL Renegades franchise, will begin play in October 2006 at the Richmond Coliseum. The team's head coach is John Brophy; Brian Goudie will be a player/assistant coach.
The new Renegades replace the United Hockey League Richmond RiverDogs, who relocated to suburban Chicago for the 2006-07 season as the Chicago Hounds.
The current Renegades are the second team with that name; the first was an ECHL team that played from 1990-2003.
The Richmond Renegades have an affiliation with the Wheeling Nailers [1] .
