We had a break because...well, why wouldn't we after my son was born but it's the start of a new era for The BOTW Podcast.

The EPIHL is gone, the NIHL becomes our focus. One of the teams most affected by the recent changes was the Nottingham Lions who step into NIHL 1 North. We speak to head coach Matt Bradbury about the Lions' summer, their chances and future.

We also chat to Mike Newton and Pete Hagan from Victory Hockey UK about hockey in Manchester, the relaunch of VHUK and more details of their partnership with the BOTW Podcast.

The BOTW Podcast in association with Victory Hockey UK; the news, action and views from the NIHL and all levels above, below and in between.
