There aren't any club ice hockey teams in Wake County. There were teams at one point, in some cases schools combined to make a team. These were sponsored by the Raleigh Youth Hockey Association and , maybe, the Canes.
That would be the best way to introduce High School Hockey back to Wake. There are enough kids to field at least 8 teams around Wake out to Winston. I'm sure Charlotte could field at least a few as well.
But, I will say it again, High School will take a back seat to club hockey. It's that way in most of the country, so, from a development/exposure perspective, nothing changes.
