The Bellinzona Rockets are a Swiss professional ice hockey team who play in Bellinzona in the canton of Ticino. They have played since the 2016–17 season in the Swiss League (SL), the second tier of the main professional ice hockey league in Switzerland, behind the National League.
History
The club was originally founded in 1987 as HC Iragna. Later it was renamed HC Biasca 3 Valli. Since 1992, the franchise has played in the Pista di ghiacco di Biasca, which was renamed in 2016 Raiffeisen BiascArena.[1]
After winning the Swiss Regio league in 2016, HC Biasca submitted an application to play in the National League B. After approval, the club was renamed the HCB Ticino Rockets, with the purpose to serve as an affiliate club to shareholders and National League clubs' HC Ambrì-Piotta.[2] as of 2023, they were relocated to Bellinzona from Raiffeisen BiascArena to Centro Sportivo, and the club was renamed to the Bellinzona Rockets, for the 2023–24 season.
