The Central Coast Rhinos are a semi-professional ice hockey team in the Australian Ice Hockey League. The team plays its home games at Erina Ice World, located within Erina Fair Shopping Centre in Erina, New South Wales.

The team was formerly known as the Blue Haven Rhinos after the Blue Haven Pools company, whose sponsorship ended prior to the 2007 season.

The Rhinos (along with the Brisbane Blue Tongues) were part of a two-team expansion to the AIHL in 2005 that saw the league grow to eight teams. While the Rhinos gained a healthy fan following in their inaugural season, on the ice the team was not successful and finished in last place, winning just 6 out of 26 regular season games.

Probably the Rhinos' most healthy rivalry is with the Newcastle North Stars, due to the close proximity between the Central Coast and the Hunter Valley, where Newcastle is located.

2007 season

The Rhinos started the season with a win over the Brisbane Blue Tongues 7-2.
