Ice hockey, a local passion

Did you know that the city of Gap is particularly well known in the world of field hockey? The Rapaces de Gap team is the city's number one sports team and is a favorite among fans. 

Created in 1937, the club started playing in the French championship in 1945. At the time, it was playing in the second series. It is during the 1962-1963 season that the team enters for the first time in 1st series (elite division). Since then, the reputation of our blue team has not stopped growing. The team is currently playing in the Magnus League, the highest level in France.

Following the reconstruction of the old ice rink named Brown-Ferrand between 2010 and 2012, the Alp'Arena ice stadium now has 2800 seats in the stands. The Rapaces de Gap play in this new arena since the 2012-2013 season.

An incredible record of achievements

With 29 national titles (including 4 Magnus Cup victories in 1977, 1978, 2015 and 2017; a League Cup in 2016; an Ace Cup in 1986; and 2 D1 victories in 1996 and 2009), 37 podiums, 2 European Cup participations, and 22 players selected for the French national team, including eight for the Olympic Games, the Rapaces de Gap's record is one of the most impressive in French field hockey.

In addition to the titles of the first team:
