History

The Kindersley Klippers began their life as the Saskatoon Titans. The Titans played out of Harold Latrace Arena and occasionally held home games at Saskatchewan Place (now known as Credit Union Centre). Unfortunately, due to a lack of attendance at their games in Saskatoon, the ownership decided to move the team to Kindersley, where they became known as the Klippers.

The Klippers won the Membercare Cup as SJHL champions in 2002, but were beat in the Anavet Cup by the OCN Blizzard of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League. In 2004 the Klippers again won the Membercare Cup by beating the Weyburn Red Wings. They later won their first Anavet Cup championship by winning the series in the decisive seventh game against the MJHL's Selkirk Steelers. This win sent the Klippers to the Royal Bank Cup as the Western representative. They made it to the Royal Bank Cup final against the OPJHL's Aurora Tigers but were defeated 7 to 1. Their record in the 2004 playoffs was 18 wins and 11 losses. In the 2008 playoffs the Kindersley Klippers looked to do it again. The Klippers first defeated the Weyburn Red Wings in 5 games, the they deafeated the Melville Millionaires in 6 games. They would face the defending League champions, the Humboldt Broncos in the SJHL championship. The Klippers took a demanding 3 games to 1 lead over the Humboldt Broncos but the Klippers run would run out as the Humboldt Broncos came back to win 3 straight games to win the series and championship. The Humboldt Broncos would later win the Anavet Cup and the Royal Bank Cup
