START as you mean to go on must be the message in the ranks of the Deeside Dragons.

Mike Clancy’s side enjoyed a brilliant beginning to their new Moralee Division season with a 12-2 home triumph against Sheffield Scimitars.

There’s home comforts in store this weekend once again, with Deeside taking on Leeds Knights this Sunday.

Leeds lost out 3-2 away to Hull as well as claiming a 6-5 success against Sheffield.

Dragons will look towards Jake Witkowski to produce another inspirational showing. Witkowski grabbed a double hat-trick in the win over Sheffield, while he was joined on the scoresheet by Theo Malone, Matty Barlow, Kane Morin, Ross Kennedy and Colin Cromie (pictured).

Sunday’s other fixtures: Billingham v Hull; Nottingham v Blackburn; Solihull v Widnes. Tomorrow: Leeds v Widnes; Sheffield v Solihull; Telford v Nottingham.

Bouncing back will be the name of the game for Deeside Dragons Seconds.

On the back of a 6-5 overtime loss to Sheffield Scimitars, Deeside are faced with a tough task tomorrow when they travel to face defending league champions Sutton Sting at iceSheffield.

Tomorrow’s other fixtures: Billingham v Coventry; Kingston v Widnes. Sunday: Bradford v Sutton; Sheffield v Nottingham.

Dragons women will be keen to continue their winning start on Sunday when they travel to Hull and back to face Kingston Diamonds in their first ever away game.
