The Revelstoke Grizzlies are a Junior 'A' Ice Hockey team based in Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada. They are members of the Doug Birks Division of the Okanagan/Shuswap Conference of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL). They play their home games at Revelstoke Forum.

History

The Grizzlies were founded in 1993. They have won the KIJHL Championship 5 times, in 1998, 2010, 2019, 2022, and 2024.

In the 2009–10 season, they not only won their Division, and KIJHL championship over the Leafs 4–1, but they went to the Cyclone Taylor Cup and won Gold. They then went onto win the Western Canadian Junior B championship, the Keystone Cup.

On June 11, 2014, it was announced that the Grizzlies ownership had been transferred to a new group headed by Ryan Parent.

In the 2023-24 season, the Grizzlies won their Division, the KIJHL Championship over the Ghostriders, and also went on to win the Mowat Cup, and gained Jr. 'A' supremacy in the province of British Columbia. Defenceman Mikkel Hrechka was the tournament MVP with 6 points in 4 games.
