With the announcement tomorrow of the 2021 / 22 fixtures at 7am, the Bison are pleased to confirm that we will open our 2021 / 22 season with a pre-season challenge game series versus the Raiders on the 11th & 12th September 2021.

The Herd will face off at usual time of 6.30pm on Saturday evening, when we welcome the Raiders to our home rink in what we hope will be a special night for the Bison family as we return loud and proud back onto home ice – further details will be released nearer the date for how we will welcome back hockey to the arena.

The return leg will be played at Sapphire Ice & Leisure Centre, Romford on Sunday, facing off at 5.15pm.

Coach Tait commenting on the news of when our season is scheduled to start,

“The players, staff and I can’t wait to welcome you all back to the rink, it’s been a long journey to get to this part but hopefully we can now see some definite light at the end of the tunnel. To hear our loud and proud fanbase will surely be another step on our way to some sort of normality”.

Bisons John Neville commented,

We must thank our loyal fans for their patience, understanding and support through the whole pandemic, hopefully we can now plan ahead and this week and over the weekend will be a bumper news weekend and launch for the Bison family with the release of 2021/ 22 fixture list tomorrow, player announcements, launching our ever popular own & loan scheme and our 2021 / 22 Season Ticket package”.

“We’re all really looking to welcoming you back to the rink come September for our Bison hockey fix”.
