The North has begun, the South is about to join the fun. Hockey is back, people and so is The BOTW Podcast.

Ahead of the new season we chat to Sean Easton. The London Raiders head coach and GB u18s assistant coach has a tough ask on his hands this season. We chat to him about his expectations, his philosophy on coaching and he stitches up one of his own players.

We round up the action from last weekend as well as Anthony's thoughts on whether Nottingham and Cardiff's CHL success being good for British hockey is not as black and white as some make it out to be.

The BOTW Podcast in association with Victory Hockey UK; the news, action and views from the NIHL and all levels above, below and in between.
