Established in 1985, the Los Angeles Blades were the first openly Lesbian & Gay ice hockey team in the United States. We currently have novice and intermediate teams. We participate in the Gay Games, the Coors Cup tournament in Denver, we host the Coors Cup/PlayLA tournament in Los Angeles, and we play yearly after the Kings Game at the Staples Center.

We are always looking for new team recruits (beginner to advanced skill level), spectators, friends, volunteers, and donations.  Our ice hockey club members are made up of diverse group of individuals from all walks of life (students, attorneys, business owners, entertainment and military) which include lesbian, gay, straight and married couples.  Each team usually plays once or twice a week and we hold a practice scrimmage usually once a month.

We welcome all interested to inquire about joining and please come to one of our games (admission is free), an event or contact us to join the team.

We currently have two different teams playing on Wednesday, Sunday and Monday nights.

Look around our website and get involved with the Los Angeles Blades!
