Hockey is BACK! Help Us Paint Windsor-Essex Spitfire Red & Blue

The Windsor Spitfires, one of the most storied junior hockey teams in Canada, are set to hit the ice again this fall—and you don’t want to miss it!

With a history dating back to their founding in 1946, the Spitfires have developed NHL talents and thrilled fans for decades. Known for their fierce play and strong community ties, they continue to make Windsor proud both on and off the ice.

The Spits compete in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL), one of the premier junior hockey leagues in the world. With its fast-paced style of play, the OHL is where fans can see the future stars of hockey before they make their leap to the NHL.

Whether you're a long-time supporter or new to the game, this season promises excitement, grit, and unforgettable moments.

Windsor Spitfire Home Game Schedule

With home games at the WFCU Centre in Windsor, there are plenty of chances to cheer on the Spitfires this season. Wear your gear, bring your energy, and make some noise—there’s nothing like the thrill of live hockey.
