MK Storm took on the Bracknell Bees

Well done to the girls of MK Storm under 16s ice hockey team for their fantastic efforts against the Bracknell Bees on Saturday night. It was great to see the girls of MK Storm don their Kubo sponsored shirts at this their first home game and only their 2nd competitive match to date. Although the competitors won the match 11-0, 76 attempts were made at the MK Storm's goal. The team's goalkeeper was therefore deservedly named "Woman of the match".

Kubo Recruitment meets MK Storm

At a recent MK Lightning match, some of the staff at Kubo Recruitment managed to meet a few of the players of the new under 16s girls' ice hockey team - MK Storm.



Kubo meet some of the girls from MK Storm 

Kubo are sponsoring the girls shirts, so it was nice to see them proudly wearing them, sporting the Kubo Recruitment logo. Kubo really enjoyed meeting the girls and watching them in action during their demonstrations in the breaks of the MK Lightning-Guildford Flames match.



It looks like the girls managed to recruit two more players, as the daughters of the Kubo staff were keen to get in on the action and support the girls.

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!
