Bahia switches to Richmond

Very late on this one, but looks like Indian Gym's Bahia has made the move to Richmond (not far down the road travel wise I guess!). Given the move of Richmond's second choice to Reading, and Richmond picking up Jamie Legg from the Berkshire side, Richmond needed to bring in cover or bump up one of their club goalkeepers to assist with their first eleven. Not exactly groundbreaking coverage, but all the same shows the moves between teams at national league level, much like you'd get in football or ice hockey transfers with more career back-up guys around for support. 

You can see him in action for his new team here (can't seem to merge the Youtube link), where he seems to play a very "old school" stance and approach which is a little odd for this level at the Prem league of the London divisions:

Legg to Richmond

Having heard the rumour on the whispering vine and rumour train, it turns out this one is another reality. Jamie Legg is off to Richmond from Reading, leaving the Berkshire side with Bailey as the incumbent. Without sounding harsh, critically, Legg seemed to have the talent to perform in Brother's abscence when the Exeter alumni goalkeeper was off on international training and other duties, but didn't seem to have that extra spark to take his game as a Premier league starter although he seemed strong at interceptions and on breakways as a standout feature. Not to say he is no good (obviously, just critique, don't take my word for it!), and I think he'll be a good fit as Richmond look to shore up their goalie department and ranks after some unfortunate turnouts against their opposition.

And you can obviously see the transfers as they happen on the England hockey website:
