==Revival Games== Originally a one-off game, former Durham Wasps players from the 80s and 90s reformed to play former local rivals [[Whitley Warriors]] on 4 May 2008 at Whitley Bay Ice Rink, commemorating the 60th anniversary of the formation of the club, and in support of the ongoing campaign to bring back an ice rink. Over 2,300 fans turned up to witness this encounter which saw Wasps players icing once again including the Johnson brothers, Mario Belanger, Ivor Bennett, Stephen Foster, John Hutley and Karl Walker. The reformed Wasps team won the game 8β4.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Wilson |first1=Scott |title=The Wasps are back for one night only |url=https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/2245561.wasps-back-one-night/ |website=thenorthernecho.co.uk/ |access-date=1 February 2024}}</ref> A second 'Legends' game was played with Whitley Warriors, Sunday 6 May 2012, again at Whitley Bay, and in memory of former Durham Wasps manager Kenny Swinburne.
