The RMCSJ Remparts men's ice hockey team (fr|CMRSJ Remparts|label=[[Canadian French|French]]) is an ice hockey team representing the Royal Military College Saint-Jean. The team was first organized in 1953, a year after the foundation of the college. The program was mothballed in 1970 but returned to ice an official club team in 2023.[1]

History

After the establishment of the Royal Military College Saint-Jean in 1952, the school fielded its first varsity ice hockey team in its second year.[2] The club initially played at the intermediate (second tier) level and joined its sister school, the Royal Military College, in the Ottawa–St. Lawerence Conference (OSLC). After going winless in its first season, the Remparts went undefeated to win the league championship in 1955. Though unable to replicate the title, RMCSJ remained a member of the conference until 1962 when they withdrew from play. The Remparts returned to the ice in 1965 and played well in their first two seasons back. Unfortunately, the team declined towards the end of the decade and ended with a winless season in 1970. That was the final campaign for RMCSJ as the program was suspended after the season.

In 2008, students from Royal Military College Saint-Jean organized a co-educational team and played in the local recreational league.[3] The informal squad persisted until 2023 when the school permitted the students to form a club team and begin play in the second division of the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec (RSEQ).
