History
Hockey in Subotica was played before World War II. Back then it was played on the nearby Palić Lake when it was frozen in winter. The club itself was organized in 1945. The first official game was played in 1947. The construction of artificial ice, since 1969 has helped development of the club. The club has played in the Yugoslav Hockey League, and afterwards in the Serbian Hockey League. However, it has not play in every season due to various difficulties - number of players and finances for example.
