History

The beginnings of ice hockey in Nové Zámky were very hard, because the nearest man-made ice ring was in Nitra. The players had to travel to the ice rink. This status was until the year 1974, when the man-made ice ring was built in Nové Zámky. In that year TJ established a youth team. This team took part in the county tournament. To the end of the seventies teams of young and old students started to form. School sport centers were established. At the beginning of the eighties the ice ring started to be fitted with a roof and the object started to have the shape of a winter stadium. The whole object had been built during the "Z" plan, whereupon the railway men had endeavoured the most. They worked many brigade hours for free, so the ice hockey team bears the name Lokomotiva - locomotive.
