History

In 2006, Fisher River Cree Nation partnered with Peguis for three seasons. The team was renamed Two Nations River Hawks.

The Juniors played in the Peguis Arena, but on the early morning of February 19, 2007, the arena was lost to fire.^[1][2] After the fire the Juniors looked for a new arena to play their home games and from 2007 to 2011 the team played all their home games at the Fisher Branch Arena in Fisher Branch, Manitoba. In 2011–12 season, they played all their home games in Fisher River, Manitoba, at the Fisher River Arena.
