Regina Pats

The Regina Pats are a Canadian junior ice hockey team based in Regina, Saskatchewan, competing in the Western Hockey League (WHL). Founded in 1917, they are the world's oldest continuously operating major junior hockey franchise that still uses its original name in its original location. Originally named the Regina Patricia Hockey Club after Princess Patricia of Connaught, the granddaughter of Queen Victoria, the team maintains a strong association with Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry. Consequently, the players' sweaters feature the regimental badge and a "PPCLI" shoulder patch.
