History
[edit]On February 12, 2024, the USPHL announced the addition of five Canadian teams, including the Universel Sherbrooke, as an expansion franchises for the upcoming season.[1] Sherbrooke was added as a member of the Canada division. Before the start of their second season, due to expansion and some minor realignment, Sherbrooke was named to the newly formed St Lawrence division.
For the 2025–26 season, Universel Sherbrooke is adding a team to the National Collegiate Development Conference of the USPHL, a step higher than their initial team. The NCDC team will use The Rinks At Vermont at Jay Peak Resort in Jay, Vermont as their home arena and compete in the East Division of the New England Conference.[2]
