The Autocraft Telford Tigers will host the Leeds Knights for a national league match at the Telford Ice Rink in Shropshire on 15 March 2026. The 6:00pm game is expected to boost the number of visitors to the Southwater area, benefiting local shops and restaurants.

This fixture is part of the 2025/2026 season for the Planet Ice National Ice Hockey League. The home club is currently celebrating its 40th anniversary and has several events happening throughout the year to mark the occasion.

Local residents and hockey supporters often gather in the Southwater precinct before and after home matches. This activity provides a boost for nearby businesses and increases the demand for town centre parking during the evening.

Beyond this weekend, the club has organised a legends match on 25 April 2026 as part of its birthday celebrations. Tickets for the upcoming game against the visiting team from Leeds are available through the venue box office.
