HK Orange 20 is an ice hockey team, which plays in the Slovak Extraliga.

Due to a disappointing performance in the previous world junior competition, beginning in the 2007/2008 season, the Slovak U20 team will be playing in the Slovak Extraliga. This is partially due to nervousness after the Czech U18 team was relegated and the Slovak U20 team came very close. The youth players from across the league were placed on the team, with a notable amount coming from HK Dukla Trenčín and HC Slovan Bratislava.

The team only plays games on Fridays and Sundays. It is also excluded from the last week before the winter break as the team prepares for the IIHF World U20 Championship.
