The Blades were established in 1985 as the very first openly gay and lesbian Ice Hockey Club in the United States.

Currently, the Los Angeles Blades are fielding two teams, a beginer/novice level team, and an intermediate level team.

The Blades have a long and solid tradition of winning in their league, at tournaments, and in the Gay Games in Vancouver, New York, Amsterdam, and Australia.

We are a very active organization playing two games weekly, hosting a yearly tournament and fund raising parties and having team meetings and other social events.
