The Belfast Giants (known officially as the Stena Line Belfast Giants due to sponsorship)[3] are a professional ice hockey team based in Belfast, Northern Ireland.[4] They compete in the UK's Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL). They play their home games at the SSE Arena (formerly known as the Odyssey Arena) and are owned by the Odyssey Trust, a charitable company set up to hold and maintain the Odyssey complex, including the SSE Arena and its facilities. The Giants operated as the anchor tenant for the Arena at its opening before becoming an integrated part of the organisation.[5][1]
Since their inception in 2000, the Giants have won sixteen major honours, including seven British league championships (by finishing top of the regular season standings), three British national championships (by winning the post-season play-off tournament), and five Challenge Cups.
