HK Pantera Minsk was a women's ice hockey club from Belarus. Founded in 2010, it was the first professional women's ice hockey team in the country.[1]

HK Pantera Minsk played in the international Elite Women's Hockey League, which it won in the 2012–13 season with Jess Jones as team captain.[2][3] The team also competed in the IIHF European Women's Champions Cup, and won the Latvia Open Championship twice.[4][5]

The club was meant to form the basis for a Belarus national team,[6] but it folded in 2013 due to a lack of funding.[1][4]
