The Brooks Bandits were awarded as an expansion franchise by the AJHL in 1999, and began play in the 2000-01 season. The franchise secured it's expansion fee through what they call "The Founding Fathers", a group of 17 local businesses and individuals who donated the money needed to finance the team in exchange for lifetime benefits with the team.

The Bandits early history on the ice had been a major disappointment, as the team finished last in the South Division each of its first four seasons before finally breaking through in 2004-05 when they finished 2nd, and qualified for the playoffs for the first time in franchise history.

The Bandits currently play in the Centennial Arena at the Lakeside Leisure Centre. In 2007 the City of Brooks announced that a new state of the art Multi-purpose arena for the Brooks Bandits, City of Brooks & County of Newell would be built near the Silver Sage Corral in Brooks' South End, near Silver Sage Road & Young Road Southwest. Construction will begin in Fall 2007 and is expected to be finished by early 2009.
