January 22, 2022 EP 148 - Dave Cloutman
This man first stepped on the ice in the 1983/84 seasons. Little did we know he would go on to be one the most well known and well liked officials the UK has ever produced. ..

That very first game was a junior Southampton Vs Richmond game in which he followed that straight up with the seniors.

Over the next 33 odd years he went on to officiate 1000s of games including almost 50 cup finals at every level within UK hockey.
A favourite of players for his no nonese style and his willingness to talk to the players. We are pumped to welcome to 4000 and Counting, King of the stripes Mr Dave Cloutman.
