Rogue Valley Royals

The Rogue Valley Royals were a junior ice hockey team that played their home games at the RRRink in Medford, Oregon.

On May 25, 2007, it was announced by the Northern Pacific Hockey League (NorPac) that two expansion teams would begin play during the 2007–08 season, the Missoula Maulers and the Rogue Valley Wranglers.

[3][4] After three seasons as the Wranglers, it was announced on February 20, 2010, that the team had been purchased by new ownership, led by Troy Irving and Forest Sexton,[5] and would be re-established as the Southern Oregon Spartans.

[8] Due to local capacity restrictions on indoor events amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the Spartans began their 2020–21 season playing in outdoor rinks with limited attendance.

[10] In August 2021, the WSHL granted a new team to Medford at the RRRink under a different ownership group, later called the Rogue Valley Royals,[11] and the Spartans had ceased operations.
