The Sugar Kings played at the Junior "C" level during the 1950s and 1960s, winning the
Clarence Schmalz Cup in 1962.In 1973, the Sugar Kings entered the Southwestern Junior "B" Hockey League. In that first Junior "B" season, the Sugar Kings won the league championship. In 1974, the league became the Waterloo-Wellington Junior "B" Hockey League, which changed its name to the Midwestern "B" in 1977.
Through much of their first 20 years, the Kings were inconsistent -- some years finishing with more than 30 wins, some years fewer than 10. But throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Sugar Kings were one of the most dominant teams in Canadian junior hockey. In 1997, 1998, 2001, and 2002, the Kings reigned as Mid-Western "B" champions, winning the
Sutherland Cup asOntario Hockey Association Junior B champions in 1997 and 2001.eason-by-Season Record
