In June 2014, it was announced that the Renegades had been granted a franchise in the Greater Metro Junior A Hockey League (GMHL) for the 2014–15 season.[1] The club was created by Allan Donnan and owned by TPA Sports and to play their home games out of York University's Canlan Ice Sports York.[1][2] The Renegades finished their debut regular season in last place overall and sixth in the South Division of the South Conference.[3][4] All clubs advanced to the 2014–15 Russell Cup playoffs with the Renegades being drawn against the Cambridge Bears in Round One of the sudden death Elimination Qualifiers.[4] The Renegades were defeated 2–3, ending their playoff run.[4]

After the end of their first season, the team was sold by TPA Sports to Joey Gagne of Abrams Towing.[5] In August 2015, it was announced that the Renegades had hired Ryan Ramsay has the new head coach, replacing Brad Davenport.[5] Prior to the start of the 2015–16 season the GMHL realigned the teams into three divisions, North, Central and South, and dropped the two conferences for the season.
