Langley Rivermen Junior A Hockey Club Information

The Langley Rivermen are a junior "A" ice hockey team based in Langley, British Columbia, Canada. They are members of the coastal Conference of the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL). The Rivermen name is derived from the history of Langley. The early explorers and traders of the Hudson’s Bay Company and the Northwest Company, the Rivermen, came to British Columbia’s West Coast to trade fur, carry goods, and create partnerships. These explorers are who laid the ground work for Langley. Like the strong and tenacious settlers who established the first roots in this community, the Rivermen are poised to boldly forge their way into a new era. This is what makes the Rivermen the first hockey team to truly reflect the community and honour its history and heritage. The team’s colours are blue and beige, representing the water and agriculture that sustained the early settlers and continues to be a substantial part of Langley’s make up. The hope is that the Rivermen are not just giving Fraser Valley residents an exciting hockey team of their own to rally behind but to create an opportunity to educate residents about the community’s past and commemorate those who made Langley what it is today.
