The Anaheim Bullfrogs were a southern Californian professional inline hockey team which played in Roller Hockey International (RHI) from 1993 to 1997, then joined Major League Roller Hockey for 1998 and 1999. The team's home games were played at the Anaheim Arena, which was later renamed the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim, and is now called the Honda Center.
The team could be labeled as the most successful franchise of RHI. The team won two championships in 1993 and 1997, the only team to win more than one. The team also won the Major League Roller Hockey championship in 1998. The team also went to the Murphy Cup finals two other times but lost to the Orlando Jackals in 1996 and the St. Louis Vipers in 1999. The team lasted the full length of the RHI and had the highest attendance figures at the Arrowhead Pond.
Some players of note include: Rob Laurie (goaltender), Joe Cook, Hugo Belanger, Mark Wolf, B.J. MacPherson, Todd Wetzel, Darren Perkins, Jim Ficenec, Victor Gervais, Kevin Kerr, Brad McCaughey, Derek Booth, and Savo Mitrovic.
