Franchise history

Team logo when the franchise played as the Cincinnati Swords from 2013–2015.

The team was previously known as the Cincinnati Cobras from 1999 to 2006, the Cincinnati Jr. Cyclones in 2006-07 and the Queen City Steam from 2007 to 2013[1] after replacing the former Cincinnati Jr. Cyclones that had played in the Central States Hockey League in the previous season. In 2013, the Steam re-branded as the Cincinnati Swords after the merger of two youth hockey programs in the Cincinnati area. The Swords name is a homage to the former American Hockey League team of the same name.[2] On August 14, 2014, the NA3HL approved the sale of the Cincinnati Swords to the Miami Valley Hockey Association owned by Ryan and Jim Colville.[3]

On April 10, 2015, the Swords announced that it would be renamed and called the Cincinnati Thunder beginning with the 2015–16 season.[4]

On June 2, 2015 the Thunder announced that they will be playing out of the historic Cincinnati Gardens for the 2015–16 season.
