OXFORD City Stars are aiming to make the league title just the first trophy of a terrific treble.
The squad claimed the English National League South Division 2 crown with a 3-1 victory at Oxpens on Sunday.
But no-one is in the mood for the party to stop just yet.
The success earns Stars a place in the NIHL 2 Championship game, where they will face Nottinghamshire side Sutton Sting – winners of the North Division – at Coventry on April 8.
And it will then be followed by the South Division play-offs later in the month.
Darren Elliott is particularly looking forward to the chance of helping Stars become champions on a national scale.
But the skipper reckons they should be targeting to finish the campaign with three trophies in the Oxpens cabinet.
He said: “We’ve won the league and now the aim will be to push on to the English Championship and then it’s the play-offs.
“The potential of a treble is there, which would be amazing.
“There’s no reason why we can’t win all three.
“The national title will be a tough battle of the titans – I don’t think Oxford have ever challenged for it before.
“It will be nice to face a team we don’t know anything about.
“I think we have more than enough depth and character in the team and we have a lot of experience.”
The meeting with Sutton comes less than 20 hours after Stars’ final game of the regular season, at Solent on April 7.
It adds a layer of difficulty not faced by their opponents, who completed their schedule last weekend.
But head coach Kenny Redmond is relishing the challenge.
He said: “We’re probably at a disadvantage because we’ve got to go to Solent the night before. But that’s why you have a squad.
“We want to win all three – that’s the aim.
“When you are involved with ice hockey it’s all about winning things.
“That makes everything worthwhile.
“It’s a great feeling to coach a successful team and see the enjoyment of the players and fans.”
