We are looking for host family/s for Nils during his stay for the 2025 season where he will join LHC as a player and coach. Nils is 18 years old and represented Belgium Hockey through to Under 16’s. He will arrive in late January/early February and return to Belgium in early September.

One family could host Nils for the duration of his stay or two families each for half of his stay or possibly three host families could share the time of stay. Host family requirements will include supplying a bedroom with bed and bedding and a supportive environment for Nils, involving him in family activities where appropriate. Nils will pay for his food and consumables, contribute to other living expenses and is responsible for organising his own transport.

BHL 2 ended their 2024 season on August 17 at Redcliffe HC. After achieving 5th place in the strong 10 team competition, they qualified for the knockout semifinal. BHL 2 was narrowly defeated by Northern Suburbs HC, 3 goals to 2. Labrador dominated periods of this semifinal but were unable to convert our superior attacking circle penetrations and penalty corner advantage into goals. Norths goalkeeper also saved a penalty stroke in the 4th quarter to deny the Stix a draw. Congratulations to Hudson Keeble for being voted Best on Ground.  

The 2s have enjoyed a rewarding season competing in what turned out to be one of the strongest BHL 2 competitions in recent years. Many of the team achieved State representative honours throughout the year Under 16 to Masters. The team looks to improve even further in 2025 representing LHC.
