HULL SEAHAWKS and Leeds Knights won’t have to wait long before renewing hostilities in the group stages of the NIHL National play-offs – after being pitted against each other on the opening weekend of the post-season.
The rivalry between the two Yorkshire teams has built steadily over the course of the 2023-24 regular season, Leeds currently 4-1 ahead in the head-to-head regular season series, while Matty Davies’s enjoyed bragging rights when hammering the Knights 9-4 over two legs in the semi-finals of the National Cup. The two close out their regular season campaign with a sixth and final league encounter this Sunday night in Hull but they will not have to wait too long before battling each other again.
Leeds will play host to the Seahawks on Friday, April 5, before the two teams meet again 48 hours later at Hull Ice Arena. The following weekend pits Hull against the Bees, while the Seahawks hit the road on Saturday, April 13 before welcoming the Slough-based team to East Yorkshire the following night.
