Bitzer UK will sponsor the Lee Valley Lions for the 2025/2026 National Ice Hockey League 2 South season. The partnership will see the compressor manufacturer's logo displayed on the front of the Lions’ home and away jerseys for the season.
The partnership is fitting as Bitzer’s high-efficiency screw compressors play a key role in maintaining the ice at the Lee Valley Ice Centre, the team’s home rink. The Olympic-grade facility in north-east London relies on four Gorac chillers based on inverter-driven Bitzer CSVH screw compressors to deliver optimum performance and ice quality.
“This sponsorship represents a natural extension of our long-standing relationship with Lee Valley Ice Centre,” said Kevin Glass, Managing Director of Bitzer UK. “We’re proud that our technology underpins the very ice the Lions train and compete on. Supporting the team on and off the rink reinforces our commitment to excellence, innovation and community engagement.”
James Joseph, General Manager, Lee Valley Lions, added: “The connection between Bitzer’s refrigeration systems and our ice centre makes this a truly authentic and meaningful partnership.”
