Glover Back for More

Another member of last season’s Lions squad has returned for the new campaign, as forward Oliver Glover re-signs with the club.

Nottingham-born Glover, who can also play as a defenceman, played junior hockey in his home city up to U19 level before studying at Nottingham Trent University.

Whilst there, he played a total of 86 games for the Nottingham Mavericks and Mavericks ‘B’ sides in the BUIHA, scoring 17 goals and 37 assists for a total of 54 points.

He also represented Nottingham Trent University in two Varsity games against the University of Nottingham – both times playing against fellow Lions returnee Ben Gillingham.

2015-16 saw Ollie move to London and briefly play for the Haringey Racers, making three appearances for the club. He moved to the Lions mid-season, playing 12 games in his inaugural campaign in a Lee Valley jersey and notching up two goals and one assist.

He returned for a full season in 2016-17, scoring three goals and tallying six assists for a total of nine points in 23 games. And last season, his third with the club, he played 21 games, scoring three goals and assisting on a further two.

Ollie is now back with the Lions for a fourth successive season and will hope to once again chip in with goals and assists to help the team move forward.
