He’s celebrating his testimonial on August 20th, and we’re celebrating that Leigh Jamieson is back in our squad for the 2022/23 season.  The 2019/20 Milton Keynes Lightning Defenceman of the Year brings over 500 league appearances for MKL as part of a career which also includes Elite experience and international honours at World Championships and Olympic qualifier levels. Leigh is MK born and raised and started his hockey career in the MK junior system playing for the Storm.

 

A commanding presence on the ice, Leigh bagged 37 points to finish as 7th top points scorer in the 2021/22 and was a great leader on and off the ice thanks to his experience and character.  

 

AIB MK Lightning’s Tim Wallace gave his views: “Leigh is a big part of our team and in our locker room.  He brings good size and physical presence, and is able to win battles in our end, and has the ability to create offence. He has a heavy shot and is able to get it through traffic. I also like Leigh for his versatility, and we’re likely to see him play forward and defence this year. As one of the more experienced guys, Leigh will also share the knowledge with the younger players on the roster, and will support our junior development pathways”

 

We spoke to Leigh about what it means to him too: “I am thrilled to be back playing for MKL again next season. MKL is fantastic club with a great fanbase and I’m proud to call my hometown team which makes it all the more special to be playing here for another season.  I am looking forward to getting going in September and challenging for silverware with the team that is being put together.”
