In 2010 a new team was founded under the name of "Icefighters Leipzig". After the closing down and demolition of the "Alte Messehalle 6" at the "old Leipzig Trade Fair ground" a temporary tent construction was built in Taucha, a suburb of Leipzig, to be the new playground.
Before the 2018/2019-Season it was announced the team will return to Leipzig to play in an exhibition hall called "Kohlrabizirkus" (circus of turnip cabbage) near the old Leipzig Trade Fair ground.
