Lee Valley Lions sign Romanas Fedotovas

Romanas FedotovasLee Valley Lions are pleased to announce the signing of Romanas Fedotovas. Vas, as he is more usually known, has most recently been playing for the Eastern Stars recreational hockey team. Originally a forward, Vas is now a hard working defenceman. He comes with a good pedigree and represented Lithuania at junior level.

Vas’ first game will be away to Haringey in the Challenge game on 17th September, face-off 5.30pm. His first game at home will be against the Streatham Redskins on 24th September, face-off 5.45pm.

Lots of developments to be announced soon

I’ve spoken with the new Lions’ Manager this evening. There will be plenty of news on the team coming within the next couple of weeks. I can reveal that the team’s first game will be against Haringey on 3rd September and it’s hoped a pre-season friendly can be arranged before then. The team colours will be back to white/green/blue.

Lee Valley Lions in ED1 for 2005/06 season

Yes, the Lions will definitely be back next season. Eddie Joseph reports that trials have been going well with the backbone of the team now in place….

If anyone else would like to try out all they’ve got to do is turn up at the rink on any Tuesday from 8pm.

Eddie is hoping to stage a game between the new Lions and some old faces, although it’s still in the planning stage at the moment. Any further news on this development will of course be posted here.

Lions to roar again?

Eddie Joseph tells me that a senior Lee Valley Lions team may return to the Den next season, playing in the ED1. Try-outs will be held in May and June.
