Tiger Tracks - The Telford Tigers Supporters Trust

Welcome to the supporters trust area of the Telford Tigers Website.

The Telford Tigers Society Ltd, t/as Tiger Tracks, was first formed in November 2009 following a deal to see a transfer of team ownership fall through.

Fans of the team immidiately began investigations as to how best to take the team forward, and having researched schemes in both football and rugby league, lead to the exciting possibility of becoming the first ever fans owned and operated ice hockey team in the country.

The working party enlisted the assistance of an organisation called Supporters Direct who help set up trusts in football and rugby. Supporters Direct oversee to date in excess of 160 successfully operating trusts throughout the country, with more fans lead initiatives coming on line each month.

The scheme, both groundbreaking and revolutionary in terms of ice hockey, has to date enjoyed a great deal of success with teams such as Exeter City, AFC Wimbledon & Clydebank in football and Bramley Buffaloes in Rugby League all owned by their fans.
