Lions sign two new players

We’re very pleased to announce that the squad has been strengthened by the signing of Andy Watt and Ben “Marshall” Williams, both from Milton Keynes. Andy used to train with the Lions back in the days of Steve James. We’d still like to see other British outfield players. If that’s you, please get in touch and we’ll arrange for you to try out.

Photos of Paul Grech & Rob McCaig

I was recently contacted by Mike Southway, a fan of the original Lions. He’s kindly sent me scans of a couple of photos he has of Paul Grech and one of Rob McCaig – these guys were great favourites with the Lions’ fans back in the 90s.

I’ve added all three photos to the History section of the site and my thanks go to Mike for contributing.

Lions sign Andrzej Maslak

Lee Valley Lions are pleased to announce that Andrzej Maslak has been selected to join the team. Andrzej is a 24-year-old Polish forward who has previously played for Poland at Under 18 and Under 20 level. Last season he was with Streatham Redskins where he scored an impressive 11+7 in 12 games.

Farewell to Darren

We are sad to announce that last year’s Captain, Darren Wakeling, is unable to play for the Lions this season. His new job requires him to work Saturdays and he’s about to become a father again so understandably, he’s had to pull out.

We wish Darren and his family lots of luck and happiness for the future.
