Lindum Hockey’s Player-Coach, Matt Bell, Recently Chatted With LincSport After The Men’s 1st Team Triumphed Over Beeston Hockey Club, Extending Their Unbeaten Streak To 30 Games. Matt Was Pretty Surprised When He Found Out It Was 30 Games, And He Was Like, ‘Whoa, Didn’T See That Coming!’ He Also Said, ‘It’s A Massive Achievement, But It Puts A Target On Our Back For Other Teams.’
Lindum Is Sitting Pretty At The Top Of The England Hockey Conference North, Being The Only Team That Hasn’T Tasted Defeat In The Division. They’Ve Bagged Six Wins And A Draw From Their First Seven Games, Racking Up 19 Points And Edging Out Rivals Doncaster Hockey Club By Just One Point.
According To Matt, ‘Everyone Wants To Take Points Off Us Now.’
Over The Last Three Seasons, Lindum Has Pulled Off An Incredible Feat Of Going 30 Games Unbeaten In The League, Which Earned Them A Promotion Last Season. Matt Added, ‘So Far, So Good At Managing The Pressure And Expectation Of It. We’re Enjoying It While It Lasts.’
The Recent 4-1 Victory Over Beeston On Sunday, November 12th, Left Matt Beaming With Joy. He Said, ‘The Control We Had, Because Beeston Are A Solid Club, Tells Us How Much We’ve Come On.’
Ben Read, The Top-Scorer For The Club This Season, Scored Two Goals In The Game, And Matt Was All Praises For Him. Ben Has Taken On A Crucial Role In The Team’S Leadership Group This Season, And Matt Is Pleased With His Performance So Far.
