Winnipeg Dragoons
Franchise Overview 1892-1894 (3 seasons)
Recap
Formed on December 21, 1883 as the Cavalry School Corps, The Royal Canadian Dragoons is the senior cavalry regiment in the Canadian Army and was Canada's first professional, full-time cavalry unit. The Winnipeg Dragoons were an ice hockey team in Winnipeg, Manitoba, who played in the Manitoba Hockey Association competition in 1892-93 and 1893-94. Players from the Dragoons took part in a tour of western Canada along with members of the Winnipeg Victorias and the Winnipeg Hockey Club in February 1893.
It was originally organized as a troop (the then-company-sized British Army cavalry maneuver sub-unit, today regarded as a squadron) and was commanded by Captain (Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel) J.F. Turnbull of Quebec City's Queen's Own Canadian Hussars. The first Regimental Sergeant-Major was Sergeant-Major George Baxter, recruited by Lt.-Col. Turnbull from the British Army's 4th Dragoon Guards at Aldershot along with two other British Army Sergeant-Instructors from the 7th Dragoon Guards and the 15th The King's Hussars.
