"Our organization is thrilled to be bringing another pro sports franchise to Southern Nevada," said Vegas Golden Knights President Kerry Bubolz. "Just like the Vegas Golden Knights and the Henderson Silver Knights, the Vegas Knight Hawks will be a team built to support the community they play in. Our games at the all-new Dollar Loan Center will be fun, affordable and have the best-in-class in-game experience."
The organization also announced that the team has hired Mike Davis as their first head coach in franchise history. Davis joins the Knight Hawks after serving as the Defensive Line Coach for the CFL's Toronto Argonauts.
ABOUT THE BRAND
While most are familiar with the common protective equipment of a Knight, like their armor, shield, chainmail and jousting stick, an elusive creature played an integral role in the Knight's arsenal. The Knight Hawk aided in keeping the knight safe by scouting the battlefield, warning of danger ahead and attacking their prey. These intimidating birds of prey utilized their exceptional vision and speed to secure victories on the battlefield. In tandem with the Knight and War Horse, the Knight Hawk forms a formidable trio that is the epitome of the warrior class
The Knight Hawk is guided by the Vegas Star. So long as the star is in sight, the Knight will always find their way home.
During battle in the dark of night, the Knight Hawk is always watching from above. Moments before it strikes, the Knight Hawk becomes illuminated from behind by the Vegas Star. When the opponent can see the gold in its eyes, they know defeat is imminent.
