The history of hockey development in Altai dates back to the mid-1950s. The founder and the first coach of the Barnaul masters hockey team was Vasily Sergeyevich Fomichev. The Barnaul team at that time was called "Spartak" and defended the sports honor of the region at the republican level. December 1954 is considered to be the beginning of the formation of Altai hockey. It was then that the Barnaul Spartacists went to the republican competitions for the first time.
