Kobe’s back for more

Posted on by
 
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.”

Everyone’s favourite forward, Seb Downing, re-signs with the Lions for the 25/26 season. 
Seb spent a couple years in NIHL1 as well as a year in Canada and he looks to build on the promising start he had with the Lions last season.

Coach Simon Jones commented: “Seb joined us last season and had an instant impact both on the ice and in the changing room. Seb was a big part of our team last season and adds more skill and depth to the roster this year.”

Ex-NIHL1 assistant captain Stevie Dunnage joins the Lions for 2025/26. He adds a wealth of talent and skill to the blue line after some time away from league hockey. We can’t wait to see what he does in the forthcoming season.

Coach Simon enthused: “To add a player of Stevie’s quality and experience is fantastic for our team. Stevie brings skill, toughness and composure to the blue line and will be another strong voice in the dressing room. The players and coaching team are excited to have Stevie as part of the team and look forward to his impact on and off the ice.”

Forward Daniel Clayton re-signs to the Lions. Having put up 276 points in the league he looks to add to that total in the 25/26 season.

Coach Simon Jones said, “Dan joined us midway through last year and gave us a strong voice in the changing room as well as added depth and quality on the ice. Dan played through injury for much of his stint last year and I know he has been working hard to be ready for this season. He’s a very experienced and talented player that I look forward to working with again this season.”

We are pleased to announce the return of netminder Ethan Frain, who was voted top goalie by the league’s managers and coaches for the 2024/25 season.

This will be Ethan’s second full season with the green and blue and we can’t wait to see how he builds on his all-star quality performances from last season.
 
Coach Simon Jones had this to say: “Ethan was the backbone of our team last season and deservedly was named as an All-Star. Ethan brings bags of talent as well as valuable experience to the team. I am thrilled to have the best goalie in the league between the pipes for us next year.”
