Milton Keynes Lightning are thrilled to announce the re-signing of defenceman Milique Martelly for the 2024/25 season. Known for his exciting pace, skill, energy, and great hands, Martelly is set to bring his dynamic play back to the ice at Planet Ice Milton Keynes.
Milique, a native of London, GBR, has quickly developed into one of the standout players for the Lightning. He joined MKL from the Streatham junior system in the 2021/22 season.  Last season, he played 40 games for MKL, scoring 3 goals and providing 18 assists. His performance was not only crucial for the team but also earned him the captaincy of the GB U20s, where he played 5 games in Dumfries.
Expressing his excitement for the upcoming season, Milique said, “Happy to be back for another season. Very grateful to have been given another opportunity to play for a great organisation and play in front of the best fans in the league. Hopefully, we can push to win more silverware this season. See you all soon!”
MK Lightning Head Coach Tim Wallace shared his thoughts on Martelly’s re-signing: “Milique is a dynamic player who keeps getting better every year. He is turning into an offensive threat from the back end using his speed to join the rush and create offence. Milique has a great attitude and is a pleasure to coach. I’m excited to see where his game can go next year.”
Martelly’s return is eagerly anticipated by both fans and teammates. His ability to contribute offensively from the defence, combined with his leadership and work ethic, makes him a vital asset to the team. His continuous improvement and commitment to the game are set to make a significant impact in the upcoming season.
MK Lightning are excited to welcome Milique Martelly back and look forward to a successful season with him on the team. Fans can expect to see Martelly’s thrilling playmaking abilities and defensive prowess in action, contributing to the team’s overall success.
