Stubbings in mask and Pinner using his new Monarch rhp design

Though not particularly earth shattering, keeping up with "gear sightings" as with other sports and their goalie forums, one of the things to notice kit wise from the recent indoor games was Canterbury's Stubbings, starting in goal for the squad, wearing an ice hockey mask. Normally seen wearing a "helmet/cage" set-up, it is a bit of switch considering he has worn that type of head gear for his entire playing career so far, as much as I know (as long as it's him in goal, if I'm not mistaken!).

George Pinner was also wearing his new Monarch rhp design that he had prototyped and suited to fit his style of play. Pinner has been wearing it recently in outdoor game action for his club Beeston and is obviously more comfortable in it now having made the switch from the new style Mercian rhp. The glove will be on sale soon according to the Monarch website, with the new design hitting shelves soon for retail.
