Kloten-Dietlikon Jets is a floorball club based in the Swiss cities of Kloten and Dietlikon. The club was founded in 2018 through the merger of Kloten-Bülach Jets and UHC Dietlikon.[1]

The women's team competes in the Unihockey Prime League, the top Swiss league, continuing the legacy of its predecessor, UHC Dietlikon. The Jets have won championship titles in the 2018–19 season and five consecutive seasons from 2020–21 to 2024–25.[2][3][4][5] They have also claimed the Swiss Cup in 2019, 2022, and 2024.[6] UHC Dietlikon previously won six championship titles in 2003, 2006 to 2009, and 2017, along with eight Swiss Cup trophies.[5][6] In 2007 and 2008, the team became only the second Swiss club to win the Euro Floorball Cup.[1] Combined, Kloten-Dietlikon rank as the second most successful Swiss women's floorball club with 12 league titles.

The men's team competes in the National League B, the second-highest division in Swiss floorball. Both UHC Dietlikon and the predecessor of Kloten-Bülach Jets, UHC Giants-Kloten, played in the top Swiss men's league from its inception in 1983. Giants won the league title in 1986, and their successor, Jets, claimed the Swiss Cup in 2001.[5][1][6] Jets were relegated to National League B in 2006 but earned promotion back to the top division in the 2009–10 season, where they remained until 2019, when they were relegated again already after the merger.[1][7]
