History
The Spryfield Silver and Black Attack was founded in 1989 as a Junior Hockey Team based out of Spryfield, Nova Scotia. In their first year, they finished third in the League, and won the Provincial title. The team continued in operation for 1990. In 1991, the team was turned over to Chebucto Minor Hockey, as their owner and founder, Stephen Adams, became an Alderman for the City of Halifax.
In 2010, Stephen Adams and Paul Strople made a presentation to the Nova Scotia Junior C Hockey League to become the newest Junior B franchise in the province. That application was unsuccessful. In 2011, Mr. Adams and Mr. Strople presented to the NSJCHL, as they sought to become the only Junior C franchise in HRM. The application was approved unanimously by the league.
In their first year of operation, Spryfield finished third overall and set a league record for wins by a new franchise, with 18.
