After lots of applications over the summer, the Champions Hockey League is pleased to announce its 32 Fan Ambassadors for the 2018/19 season.
In a change to previous years, each team now has only one Fan Ambassador, so applications were checked very carefully to make sure the the best people for the job were chosen. Fan Ambassadors will receive a special customised jersey and tickets to their team's CHL home games - but will also be required to complete a series of tasks at each game. The chosen 32 are:
| Aalborg Pirates | Alexander Babko Kaptain |
| Cardiff Devils | Dan Rhydderch |
| Djurgarden Stockholm | Janne Palsson |
| EV Zug | Claudia Bieri |
| Eisbären Berlin | Benjamin Barsig |
