The new franchise competed as the Thunder for five seasons, reaching the BCHL championship finals in 1996, which they lost to the eventual Junior A national Royal Bank Cup champion Vernon Vipers, 4–1.

[2][3] In October 2019, the BCHL confirmed that it was in talks to buy the West Kelowna Warriors from owners Kim Dobranski and Linda Wang, with unaudited financial results that showed the team profited just over $10,000, the first time the team was ever profitable since moving to West Kelowna.

In November 2019, the Warriors were purchased by John Murphy and Rod Hume under JMRH Hockey Development ULC,[4][5] with Murphy serving as governor and Hume as managing partner, and the BCHL approving the sale and the sale effective date being November 11, 2019.
