The Swift Current Broncos were a Canadian Junior "A" ice hockey team based out of Swift Current, Saskatchewan that played in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League from 1974 to 1986. From 1983 to 1986, the team was known as the Swift Current Indians.

History

The Swift Current Broncos of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League were created in the wake of the Western Canada Hockey League's (WCHL) Swift Current Broncos departure to Lethbridge in 1974. The new SJHL team adopted the nickname "Broncos" for its first nine seasons, from the 1974-75 through the 1982–83 seasons, despite the fact that another SJHL team, the Humboldt Broncos, was already using the same nickname. In addition to regular season games, these competing Broncos teams met four times in the SJHL playoffs (1976, 1978, 1979, 1981).

The Swift Current team changed its nickname to the "Indians" for their final three SJHL seasons, from 1983 to 1984 through 1985–86. The SJHL team folded in 1986 when the original WCHL (by then renamed the Western Hockey League) Broncos returned to the Swift Current in 1986.

The Broncos won the SJHL Championship in their first ever season in the league. Ten out of twelve of Swift Current's seasons were winning seasons.
