Mark Stephen visits the Fife Flyers in Kirkcaldy, to meet the players, management and the fans of the oldest ice hockey team.
With over 60 Scottish and British cups and titles to their name, the Flyers have a storied history of success that’s all the more impressive considering they’re based in a small market town. Despite facing financial challenges compared to their rivals in larger cities like Cardiff, Belfast, and Sheffield, the Flyers have more than made up for it with unwavering team spirit and a relentless drive to win. This was exemplified 40 years ago when the Flyers were crowned British Champions at Wembley Arena in London.
The team plays at the historic Fife Ice Arena, which opened in 1938. From the outside, the arena resembles an old cinema, and its interior reflects its vintage charm. While it may not boast the modern, sleek design of newer venues, the Fife Ice Arena more than compensates with its rich character and decades of history.
