Watertown Wolves Announce Plans for 2015-16 Season

Watertown Wolves News Release
Watertown Wolves, proud member of the Federal Hockey League and 2014-15 Commissioner's Cup Champions wish to announce the team's plans for the upcoming 2015-16 FHL season. After a very successful inaugural season during which the Wolves captured first place during the regular season and the Commissioner's Cup, emblematic of the FHL Championship, the Wolves faced a significant off-season challenge.
The Watertown Wolves are very pleased with the Watertown City Council's decision to invest in the City's future with a full renovation of the Watertown Municipal Arena. However, with the uncertainty of completion dates, the team was obliged to look at other potential venues within a 70 mile radius of Watertown, including sites in Jefferson, St. Lawrence, and Oswego counties, and Southern Ontario. We have also kept in mind our mission, which is to have a fun, family-oriented activity like professional hockey in Watertown. Unfortunately, no viable option could be developed and the Watertown Wolves will not play in the Federal Hockey League 2015-16 season.
We appreciate all the support of our fans and our local sponsors through our first full season. We want to reassure our community that we have already begun preparing for the 2016-17 season, starting with working towards confirming a lease agreement with the City of Watertown for the new Watertown Municipal Arena.
We will be holding regular events over the next year to keep our fans apprised of our activities and share our progress. With our partners at Victory Promotions, we will be coming out with Wolves Championship memorabilia in the very near future.
