The team started in Acton Vale, Quebec as the Acton Vale Nova in 1996 and later became the Acton Vale Beaulieu. They moved to Saint-Hyacinthe in 2001–2002 and were named the Saint-Hyacinthe Cousin. The team was renamed the Saint-Hyacinthe Cristal in 2005–2006, before becoming the Saint-Hyacinthe Top Design.

In 2008, the team was once again renamed, becoming the Saint-Hyacinthe Chiefs. The team eventually folded permanently after the 2008–2009 season. [1]
