The Kirkcaldy based side made a late application to join the league - thought to be in the last two weeks - and with the EIHL board meeting today to discuss fixtures for it's ninth year time looked to be running out for Scottish side. However, after a long day of discussions regarding both the Flyers and next season, the EIHL today approved their application, confirming that one of the UK's oldest hockey club's would take their place in the league in 11/12.
They become the fourth Scottish side in the top tier, joining Braehead Clan, Edinburgh Capitals and local rivals Dundee Stars north of the border, while also joining former BNL foes the Stingrays, Coventry Blaze and Cardiff Devils and former ISL sides Belfast Giants, Nottingham Panthers and Sheffield Steelers in the league.
Welcome to the EIHL Fife and all their fans!
