[edit] History

The Sailors date back to at least 1970. They spent most of their time in the Niagara Junior C Hockey League. Under the name the Schooners, the team joined the Golden Horseshoe "B" in 1985. They have played under the "Sailors" moniker since 1995. From 1975 until 1979, Port Colborne's Junior system went on hiatus while the town focused on Intermediate hockey. When the Intermediate Sailors folded in 1979, the junior team was brought back and has been in operation ever since.
