The Gananoque Islanders are a Canadian Junior "C" ice hockey team based out of Gananoque, Ontario. They play out of the Provincial Junior Hockey League.

History

The G-Men started out in the EOJBHL in 1972. In 1977, they opted to move to the Ontario Hockey Association's Quinte-St. Lawrence Junior C Hockey League. In 1986, the league merged with the Central Junior C Hockey League and the G-Men returned to the EOJBHL. They changed their name to the Platers that year and then the Islanders in 1993.

At the conclusion of the 2014-15 season, the league announced it was re-organizing to be more of a dedicated developmental league to the Central Canada Hockey League and renamed the league Central Canada Hockey League Tier 2. Initially, the league was to down size to twelve teams (one feeder club for each Tier 1 team), however it reduced to six teams, removing six of the current franchises, including the Akwesasne Wolves, Morrisburg Lions, Almonte Thunder, Gananoque Islanders, Gatineau Mustangs and Shawville Pontiacs.

The Gananoque Islanders announced that they would continue their franchise in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League beginning in 2015-16.
