2015-16 SWHL Season

This is the 2015-16 Sask West Senior Hockey League season. This is the league's tenth season.

On October 9, 2015 according to CJYM-AM the Wilkie Community Centre was damaged by fire. The rink itself was not damaged but the lobby and the hall were severely damaged and it would be unlikely the arena would be usable this winter. The team announced that they would be playing based out of the Unity Community Centre in Unity, Saskatchewan.
