The Bridgeport Islanders are a mid-sized professional hockey club competing in the American Hockey League, within the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference. Based in Bridgeport, Connecticut, the franchise was founded in 2001 and is Southern Connecticut's sole professional sports franchise. They operate as the AHL affiliate of the New York Islanders, linking local fans with a higher-level minor league squad.

The team serves a local audience seeking high-quality hockey entertainment and participates in community initiatives as part of its regional role. In the 2024-25 season, Aidan Fulp was named the team's IOA/American Specialty AHL Man of the Year for contributions to the Bridgeport community. In early 2025, the organization launched its Women in Sports Job Shadow Program to provide young women with hands-on exposure to careers in sports and entertainment through mentorship and shadowing opportunities.
