The Kenosha Chargers were an American semi-professional ice hockey team located in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The team was in operation for two seasons in the Continental Hockey League. The franchise was the successor to the Kenosha Flyers and played out of the same arena. he Charger's first season met with success as the team tied for the league championship with the Springfield Kings, however, they were unable to win the championship.[2] After the successful first season, Kenosha fell off a cliff and won just 3 of their 32 games the following season. The sudden and drastic fall drove away the fans and the franchise folded after the year.
