LES JOKERS DE CERGY PONTOISE
Created in 1981, the "HCCP" developed alongside the Cergy-Pontoise urban area, promoting both men's and women's hockey.
With 21 French championship titles, including 18 in the elite league, the "HCCP" is considered the stronghold of women's hockey in France.
It was in the early 1990s that the club found its stride, establishing itself firmly in the national championship — first with the women's team in 1989, followed by the men's team the following season.
The club's first women's title was won in 1995. The men's team was not left behind. From Division 3 runners-up in 1998, they climbed to the second tier of French hockey, where they remained for 12 consecutive years.
Today, the men's first team competes in the Synerglace Ligue Magnus, the highest level of French ice hockey.
The club benefits from a modern ice rink, AREN’ICE, built in 2016 and shared with the French Ice Hockey Federation and a public service delegate operator.
