The Sydney Sirens are an ice hockey team in the Australian Women's Ice Hockey League. The team is based in Sydney, Australia.[1]

History[]

The Sydney Sirens were one of the four founding teams in the Australian Women's Ice Hockey League, which began in 2007. From 2011 to 2013 the Sydney Sirens were known as the North Star Sirens but reverted to their original name which they presently use.[2] On 7 September 2015 the Sydney Sirens announced that they would be moving from their former home rink Sydney Ice Arena to the Canterbury Olympic Ice Rink and were hoping to expand their fan base in the inner western suburbs of Sydney.[3]

Logo and Uniform[]

The uniform is coloured black, with red stars and a logo that adds yellow. The logo depicts a mermaid, or siren, characters of Greek mythology.
