Fife Flyers Museum

The forthcoming Fife Flyers museum, which takes the place of the previous Skate of the Art shop in the foyer area of Fife Ice Arena, is coming along nicely. Fife Flyers Commercial Manager, Ronnie Herd, has been working hard to transform the dreary space to turn it into a place that all fans can be proud of, with the opportunity to view all of the past honours won by the UK’s oldest professional ice hockey team. It will also provide fans a glimpse of the Flyers illustrious 70 year history. The museum will be decorated in the traditional blue and yellow colours of the Flyers.

As well as honouring the Flyers past successes, there will also be a section dedicated to Fife’s junior development, regarding as one of the best throughout the United Kingdom.

The museum will include past Fife Flyers jerseys from each decade since their formation in 1938, complete with a full list of all of the honours won by the UK’s most successful ice hockey team. There is also a, packed, trophy cabinet housing some of these honours.

Finally the museum will also provide a comparison of the Flyers dressing room from the 1930’s and today’s dressing room in 2008, where fans will be able to see the changes that have been brought around to modernise the 70 year old rink. 

Importantly, fans can have their say as to which former players are inducted into the Fife Flyers Hall of Fame, and Legends wall. The hall of fame will hold names of former/current Fife players who have given ‘blood, sweat and tears’ to the team during their time with the Flyers. To be inducted to the Fife Flyers Hall of Fame a player needs to have spent a minimum of 5 seasons with the team.

The Legends wall however is not as strict. All fans can nominate names of past greats that have graced the Fife ice and consistently given their all, week in week out. It could be a free scoring forward or a hard grinding defenseman, it’s your pick. To have your say visit the Flyers forum.
