Recently we heard the very sad news that Joe Berry’s father, Martin, had lost his long battle against cancer. Martin helped out the club by driving the bus to games, doing the clock etc and will be fondly remembered by many. The funeral was held today in Hainault and on behalf of everyone at the Lions, we send Joe and his family our sincere condolences.

End-of-season round-up article
Thanks to Greg Armstrong for pointing me in the direction of an article written by Romford player, Sam Park, in which he summarises the NIHL South 2 season and writes kind words on the Lions in the last couple of paragraphs. The article is on the Pro Hockey News website.
