Hello and welcome to the London Lunatics website!

We hold an informal ice-hockey session every Thursday night (7-8pm) at the Sobell Centre in North London. The purpose of the session is FUN, more "shinny" than proper all-out ice-hockey, all ability levels welcome. Read the rules to get a better idea of what you're letting in for, or look at some of our photos.

Although the rink is also more like a large pond than the London Arena, it is big enough to play 4-on-4, with proper goals and 5-hole boards. We currently have one goalie on our roster, so if you are/know a goaltender who does enjoy free ice-time we look forward to hearing from you.
