History
The Alliston Coyotes joined the GMHL in the Spring of 2013.[1]
The Coyotes played their first ever franchise game, at home, on September 12, 2013. Hosting the Toronto Attack, the Coyotes would lose 4-2. The first goal in team history was scored by Gordy Bonnel 18 seconds into the second period of play. Bruno Novotny played the first game in net, making 44 saves in the effort.[2]
On September 19, 2013, playing in Alliston, the Coyotes would pick up their first ever franchise win in the shape of an 8-1 shellacking of the Knights of Meaford. Filip Sedivy would pick up the eventual game-winning goal at 5:40 of the first period. In goal, Nicolas Lachance made 29 saves for the victory.[3]
In August 2014, the Allison Coyotes and the Shelburne Red Wings merged assets and their ownership group sold their Red Wings franchise to Jenya Feldman who renamed them the Shelburne Stars.[4]
April 2016 Alliston Coyotes have been re-branded the New Tecumseth Civics after Ryan Wood who has won 2 Russell Cup Champions in the last 3 years and has been brought in to manage the franchise.
