[1] Home games are held at de Uithof, a winter sports recreational facility in the west of the city.

The team was founded on April 16, 1933 as part of a three-team league (together with Tilburg and Amsterdam) called the Nederlandse IJshockey Bond.

Nederlandse IJshockey Bond set up the Eeredivisie, the top Dutch ice hockey division, in 1946.

The team then entered into a period of almost 40 years of decline, winning no championships and only intermittently playing in the Eredivisie from the 1980s to the early 2000s.

In 2007-08, it dropped the "Wolves" nickname and played as "HYS The Hague", a name reminiscent of successful teams of the past.

In 2008-09, the team improved to second place overall with a record of 14-3-2-5, and won its first national championship in 40 years by defeating Tilburg in the playoff finals.

This would have qualified the team to participate in the 2009-2010 Champions Hockey League, but the tournament was cancelled for financial reasons.

Apart from HYS, there are the Tilburg Trappers, Friesland Flyers, Eindhoven Kemphanen, Herentals HYC and Geleen Eaters and Dordrecht Lions.
