Kubo meet their new MK Lighting player!

As you know Kubo are avid sponsors and supporters of the MK lighting Hockey team. Every year we are proud to sponsor one of the team. Last Monday Kubo braved the bank holiday rain and met our new MK lightning player forward Markku Tahtinen, this season we will be sponsoring Markku's "Away" shirt. 

After meeting and having our photo taken with Markku, the kids had a chance to ask him and the other players a few questions before we were treated to seeing the team take to the ice for a team practice, lead by GB men’s coach Russell.

It was a great chance to meet everyone and have a catch up, as this will be our 3rd consecutive year sponsoring the team.

We look forward to seeing how the new team get on this upcoming season and we wish them luck in their first game today against the Basingstoke Bisons!
