'''Milton Keynes Thunder''' are an [[ice hockey]] team from [[Milton Keynes]], Buckinghamshire, they are known stylistically as the '''Rightmove Milton Keynes Thunder''' for sponsorship purposes, and the team currently competes in the Britton Conference, of the National Ice Hockey League South Division 1. The team was founded in 2001 predominantly to provide competitive hockey and further development opportunities for players leaving the Milton Keynes Junior Ice Hockey system. Their home rink is the refurbished and renamed Planet Ice Arena, known locally as the Thunderdome. It has a capacity of circa 2,500.
==Club history==
===Foundation===
Founded in 2001, MK Thunder originally shared their home rink with the [[Milton Keynes Kings]]. However, the MK Kings were involved in a dispute with rink operators Planet Ice, which led to their relocation to [[Solihull]] in May 2002.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.miltonkeynes.co.uk/sport/MK-Kings-live-on-.245451.jp |title=MK Kings live on in Solihull|publisher=Milton Keynes Citizen|date=May 2002}}</ref> The space left by the MK Kings was eventually taken by the [[Milton Keynes Lightning]] which was formed in 2002.
===Position in the Milton Keynes Ice Hockey structure===
As the second most senior ice hockey club in Milton Keynes, the MK Thunder have always played in the National Ice Hockey League South Division 1 or its former incarnations (English National League South, English National League South A and English National League South 1). It has been used as a vehicle to further develop Milton Keynes based players and has been a 'feeder' club for the senior hockey club Milton Keynes Lightning. The teams iced by the club have been dominated by local players, supplemented by the occasional import (league rules restrict the use of import players to just two, compared to five in the defunct old second tier [[EPIHL]] and eleven in the first tier [[EIHL]]). The club also has links with the junior system and provides development opportunities for junior players at the Milton Keynes Storm Club.
===Arena redevelopment===
In March 2013, [[Milton Keynes (borough)|Milton Keynes Council]] approved plans to redevelop the Leisure Plaza after failed attempts in 2006 and 2011. The development of the arena was funded by [[Morrisons]] Supermarkets and took 17 months to complete. This forced Thunder to play their home games at a temporary rink sited within the Milton Keynes City Centre in a building vacated by the Supermarket [[Waitrose]]. The rink and the MK ICE charity established to operate it was organised by the team's owner and the then general manager, David Fairhurst. The team returned to the redeveloped rink which had been renamed the "MK Arena" in October 2014.
===Club honours===
*'''[[English National Ice Hockey League|NIHL]] League: 0'''
*'''[[English National Ice Hockey League|NIHL]] Playoffs: 0'''
*'''[[English National Ice Hockey League|NIHL]] BBO Cup: 1 2016-17'''
The Milton Keynes Thunder lifted their first silverware when they secured the NIHL South BBO Cup in the 2016-17 season.

'''Milton Keynes Thunder''' are an [[ice hockey]] team from [[Milton Keynes]], Buckinghamshire, they are known stylistically as the '''Rightmove Milton Keynes Thunder''' for sponsorship purposes, and the team currently competes in the Britton Conference, of the National Ice Hockey League South Division 1. The team was founded in 2001 predominantly to provide competitive hockey and further development opportunities for players leaving the Milton Keynes Junior Ice Hockey system. Their home rink is the refurbished and renamed Planet Ice Arena, known locally as the Thunderdome. It has a capacity of circa 2,500.
==Club history==
===Foundation===
Founded in 2001, MK Thunder originally shared their home rink with the [[Milton Keynes Kings]]. However, the MK Kings were involved in a dispute with rink operators Planet Ice, which led to their relocation to [[Solihull]] in May 2002.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.miltonkeynes.co.uk/sport/MK-Kings-live-on-.245451.jp |title=MK Kings live on in Solihull|publisher=Milton Keynes Citizen|date=May 2002}}</ref> The space left by the MK Kings was eventually taken by the [[Milton Keynes Lightning]] which was formed in 2002.
===Position in the Milton Keynes Ice Hockey structure===
As the second most senior ice hockey club in Milton Keynes, the MK Thunder have always played in the National Ice Hockey League South Division 1 or its former incarnations (English National League South, English National League South A and English National League South 1). It has been used as a vehicle to further develop Milton Keynes based players and has been a 'feeder' club for the senior hockey club Milton Keynes Lightning. The teams iced by the club have been dominated by local players, supplemented by the occasional import (league rules restrict the use of import players to just two, compared to five in the defunct old second tier [[EPIHL]] and eleven in the first tier [[EIHL]]). The club also has links with the junior system and provides development opportunities for junior players at the Milton Keynes Storm Club.
===Arena redevelopment===
In March 2013, [[Milton Keynes (borough)|Milton Keynes Council]] approved plans to redevelop the Leisure Plaza after failed attempts in 2006 and 2011. The development of the arena was funded by [[Morrisons]] Supermarkets and took 17 months to complete. This forced Thunder to play their home games at a temporary rink sited within the Milton Keynes City Centre in a building vacated by the Supermarket [[Waitrose]]. The rink and the MK ICE charity established to operate it was organised by the team's owner and the then general manager, David Fairhurst. The team returned to the redeveloped rink which had been renamed the "MK Arena" in October 2014.
===Club honours===
*'''[[English National Ice Hockey League|NIHL]] League: 0'''
*'''[[English National Ice Hockey League|NIHL]] Playoffs: 0'''
*'''[[English National Ice Hockey League|NIHL]] BBO Cup: 1 2016-17'''
The Milton Keynes Thunder lifted their first silverware when they secured the NIHL South BBO Cup in the 2016-17 season.
