The 2019 CBR Brave season was the Brave's 6th season in the Australian Ice Hockey League since being founded and entering the league in 2014. The season ran from 20 April 2019 to 31 August 2019 for the Brave. CBR finished first in the regular season to clinch the H Newman Reid Trophy for the second time in franchise history. However, the Brave lost their semi-final match to the Sydney Bears during the Goodall Cup Finals series in Newcastle. The team set a number of new league records including: most wins (26), most points (79), largest winning streak (17 matches), most goals scored (161), fewest goals conceded in a 28 match season (67) and least losses in a 28 match season (2).^[1]
