PARKdesigned were pleased to sponsor the recent Knights match against the Sheffield Steeldogs. Unfortunately the knights lost 3-2 but everyone that attended had a superb evening and we thank the Knights corporate team for their hospitality.

If you’d like to know a little more about the Knights here’s a little piece on the team and their history:

The Leeds Knights are a professional ice hockey team based in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. They were founded in 2019 and currently play in the National Ice Hockey League (NIHL) North Division 1. The team is owned by former professional ice hockey player Steve Nell and is coached by former NHL player James Neil.

The Knights play their home games at the Leeds Ice Arena, which has a capacity of 2,500 spectators. The team's colors are blue, white, and gold, and their logo features a knight's helmet with a stylized "L" on it.

The Knights have quickly become a beloved team in the local ice hockey community. Their first season in the NIHL North Division 1 was a success, as they finished in second place and made it to the playoffs. Although they were eliminated in the first round, the Knights proved themselves to be a formidable opponent.

One of the standout players on the Knights is forward Radek Meidl, who was the team's leading scorer in their first season. Meidl has played for several professional teams in Europe, including the Czech Republic and Austria.

Another key player on the team is defenseman Stuart Andrews, who has played for several teams in the UK's Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL) before joining the Knights. Andrews is known for his tough and physical style of play, and is a fan favorite among Knights supporters.

Off the ice, the Knights are involved in several community initiatives. They regularly visit local schools and youth groups to promote ice hockey and encourage young people to get involved in the sport. The team also works closely with local charities and organizations, and regularly hosts fundraising events to support their efforts.

In conclusion, the Leeds Knights are a young but promising ice hockey team that has quickly become a beloved part of the local community. With a talented roster of players, a dedicated coaching staff, and a commitment to community engagement, the Knights are poised for continued success on and off the ice. If you're a fan of ice hockey or just looking for a fun night out, be sure to catch a game and cheer on the Knights!
