Wardell Moves West 🔒

Your Steel 4 Structures are delighted to announce the signing of netminder #23 Ryan Wardell from the Billingham Buccaneers on a 2 year deal 🔥

Ryan, 21, stands at 6ft 3in and arrives following an outstanding season with the Buccaneers. In 12 appearances last year, he posted an impressive .943% save average, 2.29 goals-against and one shutout, leading NIHL 2 in save percentage.

Despite being just 21 years old, Ryan has already gained valuable NIHL 1 experience with both the Billingham Stars and Whitley Warriors, highlighting his potential and pedigree.

Head Coach Mike Clancy said:

“Ryan has the quality to play at a high level. His 6ft 3in stature and athleticism have made him one of the top prospects at the age of 21. The work he has done coaching the junior club in Billingham has also been noted, and I’m sure he will do similar great things with the DDJIHC. He’s a great lad and will be a positive addition to the dressing room.”

Please join us in giving Ryan a warm Deeside welcome! 🐲🔥
