The following year, the Scots then competed against SOLIHULL MK KINGS, who were the basement club that year and that was their final year in the BNL.
Next came the SOLWAY SHARKS, who went head-to-head with the Stars from 2005 to 2010 as they competed in all the same leagues as Dundee, including the SNL, Scottish Premier League and Northern League.
After the Stars joined the Elite League in 2010, they have since been matching up against SHEFFIELD STEELERS for the past 10 years.
