Brisbane Blaze is an Australian professional hockey club based in Brisbane, Queensland. The club was established in 2019, and is one of 7 established to compete in Hockey Australia's new premier domestic competition, Hockey One.[1][2]
The club unifies both men and women under one name,[3] unlike Queensland's former representation in the Australian Hockey League as the QLD Blade (men) and QLD Scorchers (women).[4][5]
Brisbane Blaze will compete for the first time in the inaugural season of Hockey One, which will be contested from late September through to mid November 2019.[6]
History
Brisbane Blaze, along with six other teams, was founded on 17 April 2019 as part of Hockey Australia's development of hockey.[7]
The team's logo and colours are inspired by the new team name, 'Blaze', which is an adaption of Queensland's former representative women's team the Scorchers. The new colours are burnt orange and yellow.[8]
