Ice Hockey's London Knights Plan Move to New Arena
The London Knights Ice Hockey team has unveiled this week its plans for the coming seasons. The announcement coincides with the news that the Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG) will be ending their tenure at the London Arena.
The Knights presently play all their home games at the Arena.
AEG, the US sports and entertainment company that own the Knights, is negotiating with the government for the Dome on the north Greenwich peninsula and the negotiations are now at an advanced stage, which will, if successful, see the construction of a world class arena in the Dome which
will become the new home of the Knights.
For the immediate future the Knights have confirmed they will continue to play all their home games at the London Arena. Joan Hill, Chief Executive Officer of the London Knights, is looking forward to an exciting period of
development for the team, its corporate partners and its ever growing fan base:
'We are delighted to confirm the London Arena as our home ice for next season. The Arena provides fantastic facilities for our fans and creates a very special atmosphere for the team. Our long term planned move to the Dome complex, the increasing popularity of ice hockey in the capital, and our new youth development programme, will make the coming seasons very exciting for players, fans and our corporate partners.'
