The Arctic Foxes women's hockey team, based in Clifton Park, NY, formed after watching the fun and excitement their children experienced while learning how to skate and play hockey. In 1998, the Foxes started with a half-dozen or so "hockey moms", some with figure skates and most with little or no equipment, and watched the roster grow to over 60 women and the formation of an additional travel team, in the past seven years. Many members are mothers of skaters from the mini-mite through high school levels, while others are stay-at-home moms, teachers, doctors, secretaries, artists, scientists, students, and small business owners, just to name a few.

2001-2002 The Foxes take it to the next level by playing in their first USA Hockey sanctioned game in Saratoga, NY, and later entering their first tournament, The Toronto Icebreakers Tournament, in Toronto, Canada.

2002-2003 Roster grows to almost 70 women and the Sunday/Monday Night Rec League is born. Four teams are created with two teams facing off each night on a rotating schedule. The Arctic Foxes Travel Team forms during the second half of the season holding practice on Thursday nights. The Travel Team finishes first in the Toronto Icebreakers Tournament and third in the 3rd Annual Champlain Shootout Senior Women's Hockey Tournament in Burlington, VT.

2003-2004 In order to encourage more "rookies", the Rec League format changes to Sundays for skills and Mondays for drills and scrimmages. The First Annual Cross-Checking Colon Cancer Women's Ice Hockey Tournament becomes a reality and over $6,000 is raised to benefit The Colon Club. The Rec Team is voted "Happiest Team" at the 4th Annual Champlain Shootout and the Travel Team captures second place in the D division.

2004-2005 The Second Annual Cross-Checking Colon Cancer Women's Ice Hockey Tournament surpasses previous year's total and over $7,600 is raised to benefit The Colon Club. The Rec Team improves upon their record at the 5th Annual Champlain Shootout while the Travel Team finishes in second place for the second year in a row. The Rec Team also did well competing in Lake Placid for the CHE Lake Placid Cup (what happens in Lake Placid stays in Lake Placid!). The Arctic Foxes enter a team in the Freihofer's Run for Women and take fourth place in the team competition.

2005-2006 Roster climbs to an all-time high of almost 80 members. The Rec Team embarks on its most ambitious schedule to date which includes a trip to Florida to face the Orlando Sirens. At the 6th Annual Champlain Shootout, the Travel Team takes third place in the C Division while the Rec Team captures the Championship in the Rec Division despite losing two players after the first game. The Third Annual Cross-Checking Colon Cancer Women's Ice Hockey Tournament raises nearly $8,000 for The Colon Club. The Foxes round out the season with another team appearance in the Freihofer's Run for Women.

2006-2007 For the first time in Arctic Foxes' history, officers are elected and by-laws put in place. Both the Rec Team and Travel Team play their most extensive schedules yet, which includes taking part in the "Stick it to Brain Tumors" Women's Ice Hockey Tournament, a terrific new tournament organized by a former Fox. Over $7,000.00 is raised to benefit The Colon Club during the Fourth Annual Cross-Checking Colon Cancer Women's Ice Hockey Tournament. The tournament's continued success warrants a change in registration policy for the 2008 contest. The Foxes continue their involvement with the Freihofer's Run for Women and plan a team/family camping trip for the summer.

2007-2008 History in the making!
