Source-derived summary

Rungsted Ishockey Klub is a Danish ice hockey club from Rungsted. The elite team is called Rungsted Seier Capital.

History

The club was founded in 1941.

Nordsjælland Cobras

The Nordsjælland Cobras was the elite team for Rungsted Ishockey Klub and played in the top Danish ice hockey league AL-Bank Ligaen. After filing for bankruptcy at the end of the 2009–2010 season, the team was excluded from the following season.

They changed name from the Rungsted Cobras to the Nordsjælland Cobras in 2004, but they are still based in Rungsted. The team won the Danish national championship in 2003.

According to the club, the shortfall is due to sponsorship money that has not been paid due and the current economic crisis has left club owners unable to cover the shortfall. In an effort to help, Cobras' arch-rival Rødovre Mighty Bulls has announced it will play an exhibition game during the national team break (now through February 10) against the Cobras, with all proceeds going to the Cobras. On 7 April 2011 they announced that they will delay their comeback to AL-Bank Ligaen by a year.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1941, 2009, 2010, 2004—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1941. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Rungsted, Ishockey and Klub providing the first useful test.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 21, 2026.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
