Over the past few months, our Junior training sessions have welcomed a growing number of new children. We’ve now reached a point where nearly 30 kids are attending each session. To better accommodate everyone, we’re making some important changes at Ardwick Sports Centre:
Splitting Monday Night Lion Cubs Training:
Ages 9 and Under: 6:30pm – 7:30pm
Ages 10 and Over: 7:30pm – 9:00pm
Merging Wild Lions and Lions Black:
New session time: Sundays at Atherton Roller Rink, 7pm – 8:30pm (Start date to be confirmed soon). Until we have this date confirmed we will hold the joint season at Ardwick Sports Centre on a Monday night 9:00pm until 10:30pm.
Saturday Training Changes:
Introductory session for new players and skills session for existing Lion Cubs.
Maximum of 25 players on a first-come, first-served basis.
By making these changes, we can offer more focused and effective coaching, reduce waiting times, and provide more one-on-one training opportunities. This will help all players improve their skills and ensure our Wild Lions and Lions Black players can progress together.
We understand these changes might not suit everyone’s schedule, but they are essential for the growth and development of our Junior teams, especially during this record-breaking season with 8 teams competing in 7 different leagues.
Payment Information:
November payment plans remain the same.
Refunds are available for those who can’t make the new schedule.
Junior training costs will stay the same, but we may increase Wild Lions and Lions Black fees by £5 per month from December (review pending).
For any questions, please message our coaches in Spond or catch them at the next training session. Your support and understanding are greatly appreciated as we make these improvements.
As we enter the final week of our October fitness challenge, it’s amazing to see the dedication and effort from everyone involved! Adults (18+) have been taking on one of two levels:
Players and parents have been sharing their progress in a group, motivating each other to stay committed throughout the month. We are incredibly proud of everyone participating, even those doing their own thing. Keep pushing through as we head into the final week!
Just a heads-up: there will be no Lion Cubs Saturday training sessions for the next 2 weeks due to events hosted by the Manchester Roller Hockey Club. But don’t worry, we’re still on for Monday nights with a 6:30 PM start time! Please arrive at least 20 minutes early if you need to find equipment. No experience or equipment required and the first two sessions are free!
For more information, email us at info@lionisihc.co.uk or drop us a PM.
We still have spots available for a netminder and 4 players for Thursday’s training session. If you’re interested, drop us a message! Keepers train for free, and players can join for just £10 per person. The session includes 45-60 minutes of drills followed by a 30-45 minute scrimmage.
