Ben Kotanen and Kelly Hart started the Bombers in 2000, and the team has since grown in size and popularity. The Bombers won the CMCHL Championship in 2004-2005 by defeating the Pacific Community Desert Dogs 3-2. In 2005-2006, the Bombers had an impeccable season having a 14 game unbeaten (13-0-1) streak at the end of the season and into the playoffs. The Bombers also clinched the Campbell Conference Title for the second year in a row. In a hard fought game, the Bombers fell in the championship game by a score of 3-2 to the Willingdon Avalanche. It was a disappointed lost, but a positive season with many goods things to build on. The road back has already begun, as the Bombers gear up for “Cup Run ’07”.
