Team history

The team was founded as the Saskatoon Riot as a charter member of the North Central League in 1994. In 1995, the team moved to the new Prairie League, joining the Regina Cyclones, Moose Jaw Diamond Dogs, and Brandon Grey Owls in the Canadian Division.[citation needed]

In 1996, the team changed its name to the Saskatoon Smokin' Guns. In 1997, the team changed its name again, this time to the Stallions. The Prairie League folded after the 1997 season due to financial difficulties.

After the team folded, local baseball builder Dan Asham purchased the uniforms to start a Saskatoon midget team. One year later, he moved the team to the Saskatoon Senior Baseball League (SSBL). That team has gone on to win numerous championships, including three SSBL Championships (2007, 2011, and 2012).[citation needed] The Smokin' Guns name has also been revived, and a team by that name represented Saskatchewan at the 2015 senior men's national championship in Chatham, New Brunswick.[2]
