What an exhilarating day it has been for the young athletes of the BRHA West League Under 8s! Today marked a significant milestone for our combined teams – the Lion Cubs, Predators, and Knights. Displaying their finest performance to date, each player demonstrated remarkable improvement since their initial games, showcasing the true spirit of sportsmanship and teamwork.

Despite the challenge of being three separate teams that only unite on game days, these young stars have transcended boundaries to form lasting partnerships and friendships. Their dedication and camaraderie were evident from the very first puck drop to the final whistle, a testament to their growing synergy and mutual support.

Adding an exciting twist to the day, we equipped our players with GoPros, capturing the action from their unique perspectives. The footage promises to offer an intimate glimpse into the game, allowing us to relive the moments through the eyes of our players.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to all the parents who have been the backbone of this journey, ensuring their children could participate and thrive. Your commitment has not only made these game days possible but has also contributed to the nurturing environment that allows our sport to flourish.

As we approach the end of the season, with just one more day left for our combined team, we look forward to the future with optimism. The prospect of each team having its own Under 8s squad next season is a thrilling development for the sport’s growth. The bonds formed this season will endure, particularly for those who will continue playing in the same Ice Teams.

For those interested in joining the Lion Cubs for the 2024/25 season, we invite you to attend one of our training sessions or reach out via email info@lionsihc.co.uk or direct message. We’re excited to expand our offerings to include league games for players ranging from under 8s to 16s next season.

In a thrilling conclusion to the BRHA West League, our valiant Lions Senior team faced off in the final two matches with high stakes on the line. With the top spot within reach, the team needed a double victory, or at least one point to guarantee a commendable second place. Despite the odds stacked against them, our Lions, a pride of just six players and an injured keeper, displayed unwavering determination and resilience.

The first face-off against the Warriors was a testament to their tenacity. The Warriors, eager to claim their first points of the season after showing remarkable progress, proved to be a formidable opponent. The Lions found themselves trailing early but clawed back to level the score by the end of the first period. The second period mirrored the first, with the Warriors quickly taking a two-goal lead. A strategic timeout allowed the Lions to regroup and refocus their efforts. As the clock ticked down, the Lions narrowed the gap and, in a dramatic last-minute play, Ben secured the crucial equalizer, earning the Lions a spot at Nationals.

The second game pitted our Lions against the newly crowned B League champions, T-Wrex, in a match fueled by pride. Despite a strong start, our power plays faltered, and the day’s challenges mounted. The team rallied once more, never yielding, but ultimately faced a 9-5 defeat. This tough day highlighted the team’s spirit and unity, setting the stage for growth and development in training sessions to come.

Our players stand tall, having secured second place and a berth at Nationals. We eagerly anticipate the next season, where a full-strength team will vie for the coveted A league spot.

Special accolades go to Callum, our ‘Player of the Day,’ whose remarkable progress this season has been a highlight. At just 18, Callum’s contribution to the score sheet and his growth in senior hockey are commendable. We also extend a warm welcome to Coach Ben, who seamlessly integrated into the team’s defense.

A heartfelt thank you to Dan for orchestrating the league, and to the referees and timekeepers whose dedication makes these game days possible. Your efforts are the backbone of our league’s success.

Looking ahead, the Lions are gearing up for the final two games of the BRHA North West League. With two points from four, we can secure another Nationals spot, while three points will clinch the top league position.

In a thrilling match-up, the Lions Black faced off against the Wild Lions, showcasing a nail-biting contest that ended with Lions Black securing a 4-2 victory. Both teams demonstrated significant improvements throughout the game, making it a day to remember.

The Lions Black continued their campaign facing the Warriors and Killa Wales. Despite losses in both matches, the team exhibited remarkable progress, particularly against the Warriors. The young duo, Sam and Andrew, were the highlights of the day. Their relentless pursuit of every loose puck and their impressive defensive blocks were commendable. It was inspiring to see these young talents gaining confidence and integrating seamlessly into the senior team.

The Wild Lions, though winless this weekend, put up a formidable fight, keeping the game against Lions Black tight. They faced a tough match against the Raiders, and despite what appeared to be a daunting defeat, they managed to keep the scoreline competitive until the final five minutes. With only six players, the strain began to show against the Raiders’ larger squad. Nevertheless, the Wild Lions have shown vast improvement, not only in maintaining a solid box formation but also in executing breakaways and completing intricate passing plays that led to goals.

Standout players of the weekend, Claire and Sami, deserve special mention. Claire’s tenacity in chasing down every opportunity paid off with a goal, while Sami proved to be an unyielding force in defense.

A heartfelt shoutout goes to Dan, Chris, and Adens for stepping up during the goalkeeper crisis after James sustained an injury in the first Lions Black game, rendering him unable to continue for the day.

Looking ahead, Lions Black will return to the rink on May 26th, and both Wild Lions and Lions Black will play their final games of the season on June 23rd. As we eagerly anticipate the 2023/2024 season, we extend an invitation to Manchester-based individuals interested in joining our team. We are actively seeking players for both the North West and West Senior Leagues, as well as the West Junior League.
