Riverkings marketing team

The Riverkings head into their sixth season in Wisconsin Rapids, a community that has full-heartedly supported us on and off the ice. The Riverkings are one of the only teams in the USPHL that bring in crowds of over 500 every night in a town much smaller than places like Chicago and Minneapolis.

With a place for community members to enjoy the winter nights, we look forward to continuing to grow hockey up and down the river, which has been a successful motto in which we live by.

With a winning record and multiple national championship appearances the Riverkings have also helped advance multiple players to NCAA programs.

The culture and community surrounding the Riverkings helps recruit the best-of-the-best to play in Wisconsin Rapids year-after-year.

The Riverkings opened the season on the road and come home for the first time this season on Oct. 5 to play in front of their beloved hometown crowd; puck drops at 7:30 p.m. at the South Wood County Recreation Center as we continue to build hockey up and down the river.
