<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Melbourne Jets''' are an ice hockey team based in Melbourne, [[Australia]]. They play in the [[Victorian Championship]]. The club traces its history back to the '''Raiders Ice Hockey Club''', which was formed in 1950, and the '''Hakoah Ice Hockey Club''', founded in 1955. <br />
<br />
The club was known as Raiders-Hakoah in 1955. '''Arkana IHC''' was also formed that year, sponsored by Hakoah Sports Club. All three clubs merged in 1956 as Raiders-Hakoah-Arkana. The unified club became known as Hakoah in 1957.<br />
<br />
Hakoah merged with the Lions IHC, which had been founded in 1979, in 1983 to become Hakoah-Lions for one season, then the '''Rebels IHC''' for three seasons until they became Hakoah again in 1987.<br />
<br />
They were renamed the '''Melbourne Jets''' in 1995. From 2009-2012, the Jets amalgamated with the [[Demons Ice Hockey Club]], playing as the '''Rangers''' and winning the 2009 premiership. <br />
<br />
The club also features teams in the Premier Reserve, C1, and C2 divisions of the Victorian league.<br />
