The Wichita Thunder is entering its 30th season and eighth year as a member of the ECHL, the premier ‘AA’ hockey league.

The ECHL began in 1988-89 with five teams in four states and has grown into a coast-to-coast league with 27 teams in 20 states and two Canadian provinces for its 34th season in 2021-22. There have been nearly 700 players who have gone on to play in the National Hockey League after beginning their careers in the ECHL.

In the Thunder’s 29-year history, we have entertained over five-million fans, including 20 sellout crowds in franchise history, and have averaged over 5,000 fans per night during the first 29 years in Wichita.
