Lester Green

 

Born to Mr and Mrs. Green in the projects of Jersey City, Lester Green is ready to take the VHL by storm. Greens journey to the VHL is a little different than those who have come before him.

 

Lester was born on July 2^nd, 2002 and was the sixth kid to be born into the Green family. Lester enjoyed a normal childhood growing up in New Jersey, but never became a huge hockey fan like the rest of his family. Greens childhood consisted of attending the PS 31 school in Jersey City, where film star Jerry O’Connell’s mother taught Green.  As Green entered his tween years, he met someone that would become his mentor, friend and agent Sean Rooney. With the help of Rooney, Green started to branch out into things he never experienced before, including roles in a television program and film (Girls Gone Dead). After appearing in films and television, what came next for Green was taking his talents to the sporting world.

Green was presented with an opportunity to take part in a celebrity charity hockey game, and Green ran with the opportunity and never turned back. After lacing on the skates, Green felt that he had a natural ability that couldn’t be ignored any longer. Green would sign up for the New Jersey Youth Hockey League at the age of 14, something that drove his desire to be the best even more. Green joined the Jersey City Capitals out of Jersey City, NJ. Greens first year in a competitive form of hockey was the 2017-2018 season for the NJYHL Bantam B North Team, a year that Green and the team would like to forget. Lester and the team went a horrible 2-21-6, getting outscored throughout the year 155 goals against to 60 goals for. Green himself didn’t have a great first season in hockey either, posting a team low 5 points over the course of those 29 games.

 

The first season with the Jersey City Capitals was enough for Green and the following season Green returned back to his previous life of film and TV. After taking a one-year hiatus from sports to ensure that Green was making the best choice for his career, Green joined the Jersey City Capitals Midget team. The season wasn’t nearly as bad as 2-21-6, but a 3-14-1 record was another shot to the guy of Green and his hopeful career. After the season ended in November for Green and his hockey team, Green stayed away from the rink for about six months. Roughly around mid-May, Green started getting back into the swing of things and heading back to the gym.

 

Now Green awaits his turn at the VHL after signing up for the league last week. Time will tell if Greens career choice was a correct one.
