The following season, <a href="/wiki/Heineken" title="Heineken">Heineken</a> withdrew their sponsorship of the second division, which was renamed the English League Division 1. Bees narrowly missed out on the championship to the Humberside Seahawks, but then won the league the following season, gaining promotion to the <a href="/wiki/Heineken" title="Heineken">Heineken</a> League Division 1. Having finished third, behind Humberside and the Slough Jets, Bees progressed to the top tier of British hockey, the <a href="/wiki/Heineken" title="Heineken">Heineken</a> Premier Division, via the play-offs, alongside the Seahawks. </p><p>Once at the top, it was a struggle and Bees were regularly mid-table or below, before eventually being relegated in 1995, under the leadership of <a href="/wiki/Mike_Urquhart" title="Mike Urquhart">Mike Urquhart</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="New_beginning">New beginning</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Berkshire_Bees&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: New beginning"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>That sparked a new beginning for the club.

This they did and the club successfully completed the season, finishing in 3rd place in the league, winning the <a href="/wiki/English_Premier_Ice_Hockey_League" title="English Premier Ice Hockey League">EPL</a> cup and finishing runner up to <a href="/wiki/Slough_Jets" title="Slough Jets">Slough Jets</a> in the play-off final. </p><p>For the 2008–2009 season <a href="/wiki/Dwight_Parrish" title="Dwight Parrish">Dwight Parrish</a> returned to the Manchester Phoenix and was replaced as head coach by the previous season's captain, Adam Bicknell.

This was announced mid season in an effort to allow time for a new owners to be found and make the relevant arrangements with John Nike Leisuresport, who would issue the operating licence. Unfortunately, with parties interested, deadlines came and went and were extended, but no deal could be reached. At the last moment in the absence of any alternative owner, Eleftheriou and Robinson announced that they would continue with revised budgets, rather than see the club fold. Unfortunately, by that stage the majority of the team had signed elsewhere, while coach Adam Bicknell announced that he was to retire to play local league football instead. </p><p>With little time to build a new team, Bees recruited Claude Dumas as player coach, after his club <a href="/wiki/Telford_Tigers" title="Telford Tigers">Telford Tigers</a> announced that they were to mothball. Dumas recruited three imports from the French Elite League, forwards Michal Pinc and Jaroslav Cesky, along with Dutch international defenceman, Chad Euverman. Euverman announced after the start of the season that he would not be joining up with his new team and was soon replaced by the previous seasons fans' favourite, Andrius Kaminskas. Only two EIHA trained players returned from the previous season, Ryan Watt and Danny House. As well as being joined after the start of the season by Kaminskas, December also saw a surprise returnee, when Adam Bicknell rejoined the team. </p><p>After Dumas took the decision to retire from hockey at the end of the 2009–10 season, Gareth Cox was appointed as the new head coach. Cox had been the coach the Bracknell Hornets English National League team for a number of years, leading them to a playoff title before moving to the Bees. He brought a number of young players with him from the Hornets and kept the core of Dumas' squad from the previous year together including EPL player of the year Jaroslav Cesky who stayed at the club with line mate Pinc despite receiving rumoured lucrative offers from elsewhere. However, things didn't go to plan and Bees finished the season at the foot of the <a href="/wiki/English_Premier_Ice_Hockey_League" title="English Premier Ice Hockey League">EPL</a> table. </p><p>For the 2011–12 season, assistant coach, Greg Randall left to join the <a href="/wiki/Peterborough_Phantoms" title="Peterborough Phantoms">Peterborough Phantoms</a> and was replaced by <a href="/wiki/Lukas_Smital" class="mw-redirect" title="Lukas Smital">Lukas Smital</a>, a former Bee and Cox's former assistant with the <a href="/wiki/Bracknell_Hornets" title="Bracknell Hornets">Hornets</a>. <a href="/wiki/Luk%C3%A1%C5%A1_Sm%C3%ADtal" title="Lukáš Smítal">Smítal</a> was already the head coach of the Bracknell Ice Hockey Club and upon his return to the Bees, also took on the role of head coach to their senior team, <a href="/wiki/Bracknell_Hornets" title="Bracknell Hornets">Bracknell Hornets</a>, while Cox also took on the head coach role with the Under 18 team, Bracknell Drones. </p><p>Together, the pair set about rebuilding the Bees from the bottom up, bringing back former Bees, <a href="/wiki/Martin_M%C3%A1%C5%A1a" title="Martin Máša">Martin Máša</a>, Matt Foord, <a href="/wiki/Shaun_Thompson" title="Shaun Thompson">Shaun Thompson</a>, <a href="/wiki/Carl_Graham" title="Carl Graham">Carl Graham</a>, Tom Annetts and Brad Watchorn, and adding some players used to competing at the top end of the table, including <a href="/wiki/Guildford_Flames" title="Guildford Flames">Guildford</a> captain, Rob Lamey and <a href="/wiki/Slough_Jets" title="Slough Jets">Slough</a> pair, Michael Bowman and Andy Munroe.

Peter Jasik moved from the Bees to the Hornets and giant Latvian defenceman, Sergejs Louskins both departed, and Bees went with two import defencemen in Jan Bendik and Marcel Petran. Petran had a good offer from abroad during the season and left, to be replaced by Pavel Strycek.

Off ice, the management were supplemented with a team of marketing and management experts as well as the Bees Supporters Club to help guide the club towards their vision. </p><p>John Nike Leisuresport Limited, which issues the license to operate the Bees, was equally excited with the PSM appointment. "We received several expressions of interest and proposals but the PSM business plan offered the best all round package for the Bees and Bracknell", commented Director Martin Weddell. "Their recognition of the efforts put in by the previous team and their innovative future plans were key factors in making our due diligence decision. We put forward the business proposal of PSM to John Nike Founder & Chairman, who has agreed to the granting of the Bees Licence to PSM, commenting that he is delighted with the prospect of the continuation of the Bracknell Bees under the operational direction of PSM with its undoubted business intentions to grow the team and its reputation. </p><p>2013/15 season, the first for PSM was not without its tests.

In a repeat of the previous season, Bees played <a href="/wiki/Manchester_Phoenix" title="Manchester Phoenix">Manchester</a> in the quarter-finals and after winning the first leg, went down in the away leg to the newly crowned champions.
