Big 4 point weekend for Lions Senior team.

Sunday saw the Lions senior team return to play in the BRHA West league and push for a B Nationals spot.

The 1st game saw the Lions take on the current A league leaders and last season’s Nationals runners-up Predators. Lions started off slow in this game where we found ourselves 9 – 1 down after the 1st period but the group of players pulled together and only conceded 3 goals in the 2nd and scored 4 as the game finished 12 – 5 to Predators.

The 2nd game saw an end-to-end game with the current team which holds the 3rd place in the league and one of the B National places.

This game against Leasowes Sharks saw the Lions take an early lead but Leasowes Sharks had a lot of fight in their game and managed to make it a 9 – 9 game with 5 minutes to go. The last 5 minutes could have gone anyway but the team managed to score another 3 goals and not concede any in this time to get a big 2 points and win the game 12 – 9.

We should have also had a game against the Slush Puppies but unfortunately, they could not put a team together and had to forfeit the game giving the Lions a 5 – 0 win.

It was a great game day for all of our players as this is the 1st time this team has played fully together this season with Callum also getting a goal on his 1st game day for the team.

Lions are back playing in the West League on 11th June where we take on Chappies Wrexham and Outcast.

Here are some pictures of the game day and our Netminter looking good in a Pink Helmet when helping ref the game between Leasowes Sharks and Predators.
