The 2002-03 Humboldt Broncos have been inducted into the Saskatchewan Hockey Hall of Fame in the Team category.
The Broncos had a very good 2002-03 season in the SJHL which helped lead them to a successful showing not only provincially but nationally. The team finished first in the SJHL with a 39-12-6-3 record. Humboldt defeated Melfort 4-0 in the first round, Battleford 4-2 in the second round, and Melville 4-0 in the league finals.
The Broncos advanced to the Anavet Cup where they defeated the OCN Blizzard 4-1. The Anavet Cup win moved the Broncos to the Royal Bank Cup where they beat the Camrose Kodiaks of the AJHL 3-1 in the final to claim the championship.
