1996-97 - Early in 1996, new team president, Russ Nehmer, launched himself into the task of restoring the Clansmen to the top of the League. The team was reformed in its' own right and Nehmer secured excellent sponsorship deals in addition to regenerating the teams resources. An excellent recruitment campaign throughout 1996 has given the Clansmen a fine squad of new players. A slow start to the 1996/97 season was attributed to many players' newness to the game. However over the campaign, the team improved dramatically and managed to qualify for the Northern conference Plate Competition.

1995-96 - For the 1995-96 season, team president Mark Brember arranged a temporary merger with the Strathclyde Hawks. A small band of Stirling players contributed greatly and the result was a Scottish Division title and excellent experience for the returning players.

1994-95 - Stirling struggled for half a dozen years to regain the success of the early seasons, only once winning more than two games. In 1994-95, it looked as though the Clansmen might have turned the corner, as new coach Paul Poppa led the team to the best record in five years. However, Coach Poppa retired after the 1995 season and the Clansmen withdrew from active participation in the League for one year, forced by a mass graduation of the playing staff.
