Hockey Club Bilyi Bars Bila Tserkva (Ukrainian: ХК Білий Барс Біла Церква, lit.'White Leopard of Bila Tserkva') is a Ukrainian professional ice hockey team based in Bila Tserkva, Ukraine. The club was a founding member of the Professional Hockey League of Ukraine and now playing in the Ukrainian Hockey League.

History

[edit]

The Bilyi Bars were founded in 2008. They began play in Brovary (Kyiv Oblast).

Twice that team won the silver of the Ukrainian Hockey Championship (2008, 2009)[3]

In 2012, the club found a new sponsor. The team moved permanently to Bila Tserkva on October 28, 2012 from Brovary, the city where they were founded.[4] Following this, the team changed its name from HSK Bilyi Bars (Ukrainian: ХСК Білий Барс) to HC Bilyi Bars Bila Tserkva.

The home arena was opened on December 7, 2012.[5]

During the 2013–14 season, the club were acting as a farm team to HC Donbass, that was playing in the Kontinental Hockey League at that time.[6]

In 2014 the club won the third silver at the Ukrainian Championship.[7] The name of the team playing up to the last minute has been assigned to Bilyi Bars.[8]

The hockey club actively participates in the Ukrainian hockey Movement. 25 July 2011 Bilyi Bars were at a meeting of the ice hockey teams that created The Professional Hockey League. In the 2011–12 season, Bilyi Bars took the 7th place out of eight participants.[9]

In the 2014–15 season, the team did not participate in the Ukrainian Hockey Championship.

3 June 2016 "Bilyi Bars" co-founded Ukrainian Hockey League that reorganized the Ukrainian Hockey Championship.[10]

Since the beginning of its activity, Bilyi Bars HC relies on young Ukrainian hockey players, and in particular on youth from Bila Tserkva.[11] Many hockey players who defended the colors of the junior and youth national teams of Ukraine passed the school team. In particular, the champions in the second division junior championship (U18) in 2011 were three former players of the club, and in the youth championship (U20) in 2012 - two former players.[12] Therefore, the club received the informal title of Forge of personnel, which is his main achievement.[13]

The 2017/2018 season has so far been the best in the history of the club - it finished 2nd in the standings (repeating the result of the 2013/2014 season) and scored 84 points.

September 5, 2019 Oleksandr Bobkin (assistant head coach) Becomes Senior Coach of the Junior National Team of Ukraine (U-18).[14]
