Gonzalez gonna be back

Posted on by

Colombian international Nicholas Gonzales signs for his second year with the Lions. Last year was Nick’s first full year of senior hockey and he constantly demonstrated a drive to improve throughout the season.
 
Nick impressed more than just us, because at the end of last season he was selected for team Colombia and has improved massively during his time with them. The Lions’ coach had this to say: “Nick is one of the hardest working players I have ever worked with. He constantly pushes himself and is always exhausted at the end of a training session. Nick is very coachable and I think that with the work he has put in over the summer he has positioned himself to have a very good season.”

We are thrilled to announce the signing of 23-year-old Lewis Carter from the NIHL1 Invicta Dynamos. Lewis has spent his whole career with Invicta, coming up through their junior system and now jumps ship to the Lions.
 
Coach Simon Jones had this to say about the latest signing: “Lewis worked hard during the trials this summer and made an impression with his attitude and ability. He is extremely positive and passionate about the game. I’m sure he will work well in tandem with Ethan and develop his game as we move through the season.”

Another returns to the Den

Zion joined the Lions in the 23/24 season from NIHL1 and quickly became one of the team’s best defender prospects. Last season was derailed with injuries, so we are so excited to see him back to fitness.
 
Coach’s comments: “Zion is a solid player that has huge potential to be one of the best defenders in NIHL 2. He is quick, has solid fundamentals and is not afraid to do the hard work in the corners. Last season was a bit disrupted for Zion with one or two injuries, so I am looking forward to seeing him take a big step forward this season.”

A return for Tajah Allen

Fan favourite Tajah Allen re-signs for the 25/26 season. Last season was a great year for Taj, with 16 points over the season and cup (including a crazy 5-goal game). How many he will get this season?
 
Simon, Lions’ coach said: “Tajah brings speed and a fearless attitude to every game. Tajah took on a larger role last year and I believe he can be a regular contributor at both ends of the ice this season. I know that Tajah is driven to be the best player he can be and I am sure he will continue to grow this season.”

Kobe’s back for more

Young talent Kobe Grinell-Parke re-signs with the Lions for the 25/26 season, looking to hone his natural talent while on a two way with Romford Buccaneers NIHL1. He showed real promise last year and we can’t wait to see what he does this year.
 
Coach’s comments: “I’m delighted to have Kobe on board again this season. Kobe works exceptionally hard and is extremely coachable. As well as this he brings a lot of quality to the line-up. I’m expecting a lot from Kobe this season and I know he will do all he can to push on and be a difference-maker in NIHL2.”
