What way to end the BRHA Under 8s West League

Today marked the end of the Under 8s BRHA West League season, where our Lion Cubs teamed up with the Predators and Knights. What an exciting conclusion it was! The kids faced a tough challenge against the Bear Cubs, who were vying for the top spot in the league.

In the first game, the Bear Cubs secured a 9-3 win, but the score doesn’t reflect how competitive the match truly was. Our team took some time to find their rhythm in the first period but delivered a solid performance in the second. Ellis (#40) scored a fantastic backhand goal, while H. Morgan (#33) netted two more goals with some excellent plays.

The second game saw our kids hitting their stride, resulting in a thrilling 4-4 draw. We nearly clinched the win with just 12 seconds left, but the puck hit the underside of the bar and bounced out. Overall, it was a fantastic day for the team, showcasing their growth and determination to push one of the league’s more experienced teams to a draw.

This was also the final game for our combined Lion Cubs, Predators, and Knights team. Next season, we plan to field our own teams in the Under 8s and other junior age groups. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the players, coaches, parents, and everyone involved in the league for making this first junior season a success. It has been an amazing experience with some incredible hockey, but most importantly, the children had fun and made new friends both on and off the rink.

The Lion Cubs are now gearing up for next season, and we will soon announce the age groups we will be entering. If anyone is looking to join a new team or get into the sport, join one of our training sessions on Saturdays at 10:30 am or Mondays at 6:30 pm at Ardwick Sports Centre.

Wild Lions Roar at BRHA 2024 On the Rocks Tournament: A Season of Growth and Determination

Huge congratulations to the Wild Lions Female Inline Hockey Team for their remarkable performance at the BRHA 2024 On the Rocks Women’s Tournament! This was the first time the team played with the majority of its own players, showcasing the significant improvements made over the past 12 months.

Although they didn’t secure a win, the team held their own against all opponents, with experience becoming a factor in the latter stages of the games. The core members—Dani, Claire, Sammy, and Grace—have participated in previous On the Rocks tournaments, while Liz, Annelie, and Molly made their debuts. Notably, Annelie played her first-ever games, and Molly had only one game day under her belt.

The team has shown consistent improvement each season. As we head into the 2024/25 season, the Wild Lions are eager to build on their achievements from the 2023/24 season and continue to progress.

We are now looking for more players and a permanent keeper to join us on Monday nights at Ardwick at 8 PM. No experience or equipment is required, and the first session is free. For more information, please email info@lionsihc.co.uk.
