Milton Keynes Kings

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Milton Keynes Kings were an Ice Hockey team based in Milton Keynes from 1990 to 1996 and from 1998 to 2002.[1] Following a dispute with the Planet Ice Arena in Milton Keynes, the team relocated to Solihull, where they became Solihull MK Kings for a while.[2]. The team was wound up in April 2003.[3]

The Solihull franchise was taken by the (new) Solihull Barons in 1996.[4]

Milton Keynes Lightning took over the top professional league spot at Planet Ice almost immediately.
