History
The parent organization was founded a few years after the New York Islanders hit the ice. The two have remain tied together ever since with the Jr. Islanders helping to lay the groundwork for junior hockey throughout Long Island.[1] The organization joined the USPHL as a founding member in 2013, starting with new teams in the then-top two divisions, Premier and Elite. Four years later, the USPHL announced that it would be founding a new Tier II division called the National Collegiate Development Conference. Both of the Jr. Islanders program were promoted one level (Premier joining NCDC and Elite joining Premier).
Though the club initially struggled to compete in the USPHL, since 2020, the Islanders have posted five consecutive winning seasons and were league champions in 2023.
