Whitley Wildcats IHC

18/03/2026

Need a new team? Fancy a late-night bag skate?

We’re looking for a couple of new players to join the Wildcats.

Because of some of the current squad’s availability, we’re after a couple of new bodies to bolster the ranks and get involved.

Saturdays
22:30 start
90 mins on ice

We’re a good bunch, decent standard (for rec 😂), and always up for bringing new lads into the team.

If you’re interested, give us a message and come down for a skate.

Bonus points if you can backcheck and don’t mind training when most normal people are in bed.

Road trip. Big win. Job done. ✅

Last night we travelled to Bradford to take on the Bradford Cannibals Ice Hockey Club.
After hitting 4 goals in the first 4 minutes, the lads never looked back, coming away with a 16-4 victory.

Great game and great spirits from both sides all night.

MOM: #21 Josh Hampton

Pigeon of the Game: #18 Andy Pearson for an all-time display in front of the empty net, missing 3 sitters 😂😂

Next up: away to Widnes to face the Halton Huskies.

🚨 Away game 🚨

This Saturday we travel down to not so sunny Bradford to face the Cannibals.

It’s been a while since we’ve faced each other so should be a good test for the season ahead.

W secured. ✅

60+ shots in two periods.
6 goals in the third.
Relentless pressure all night.

Fair play to Northumbria Kings and their keeper for a good game of hockey — best of luck for the rest of the season

POTM went to:
#1 for the University (rightly so)
#80 Kirill Holstov for the Wildcats.

Loads of amazing seats still available!!

🔥 GAME DAY. ROUND TWO. 🔥

This Saturday we run it back against Northumbria Kings — the rematch from November.

Last time? A draw.
This time? Someone’s walking away with the W. 👀

Expect pace.(doubtful)
Expect noise. ( from the 5 spectators )
Expect two teams who remember exactly how the last one ended.

Got nothing better to do?
Can’t sleep?
Fancy watching some questionable hockey? 😏

Get yourself down to Thunder Bay and witness it live.

It’s a 22:20 Faceoff so obviously there’s going to be some talent on show.

Come down and support your Wildcats, loads of seats left.
