Ice Hockey: Fylde Flyers Host Hull Stingrays - Saturday 5pm

Fylde Flyers ice hockey team will be looking to pick up their second win of the season when they entertain Hull Stingrays in an English League Division 2 North encounter at the Sub Zero Ice Arena in Cleveleys on Saturday.

The Flyers beat Lancashire rivals Blackburn Eagles 9-6 in an entertaining and "penalty rich" home game last Saturday before losing out 5-2 away at newly relegated Solihull Barons, who older fans may remember as being the "team to hate" back in their 1980s British League heyday...

The Flyers beat Hull in their last meeting in April - a comprehensive 9-3 home victory - but lost the other 3 matches against the Stingrays, so there will everything to play for and, as ever, lots of action to enjoy!

Doors open at 4.30pm and the match faces off at 5pm.
