Home of the Lee Valley Lions Ice Hockey Team
Haringey Greyhound Gary Dodds used to play for the original Lee Valley Lions back in the 90s. After 10 years with the ‘Hounds Gary is having a well-deserved testimonial on Sunday 27th August, face-off 5.30pm.
Old school Lions fans might like to pop along as Gary will be playing alongside his old LVL partners in crime, Jon Beckett and Glen Moorhouse (the other one, Neil Stower, is in the USA). With any luck I’ll be there and will post a few pics.
The final trials took place on 1st August and three more players were signed: Romanas Fedotovas, Kwabina Oppong-Addai and Rob Courtman. All were members of last year’s squad and we’re pleased to welcome them back.
Lee Valley Lions have secured the services of another netminder, Glen Jackson, who played for Streatham Redskins last season. He was in goal when the Lions faced the Redskins last December, facing 23 shots and conceding only 1. Glen will be joining existing netminders Stefan Nubert and George Alley for the Lions’ 2006/07 season.
Following last night’s trials we are pleased to announce a further four signings to the 2006/07 squad: Joining defence are Billy Whitney and James Hatfull, while Stefan Nubert returns as netminder along with forward Darren Wakeling. The final trials are on 1st August, 7.30pm.
Following last night’s second round of trials we are pleased to announce that last season’s third highest scorer, Richard Hodge, has re-signed with the Lions. We also welcome Michael Jacobs as a permanent member of the new season’s team.
