Telford Tigers are pleased to announce the return of Joe Aston for the 2025/26 season. Aston first appeared for Tigers in 2014 and was a member of the team that won the league and cup double in 2020 and the league championship winning team in 2022.
Joe commented, “I am very excited to be back with Telford and cannot wait to get this sea-son started. We have a great group of core players and coaching staff that made the deci-sion to return this season extremely easy. Let’s bring home some silverware this year!
Tom Watkins, Head Coach and General Manager, commented on the signing of Aston.
“’I am delighted to have Joe return for another season. There was never a question in my mind about him coming back, he is a focal point for our team a glue guy, a leader, a guy that gets the team going and for me a person that I can turn to when I or we have an issue.
Joe is always in good shape but he’s worked tremendously hard in the gym this summer with a more specific hockey plan and is in great shape right now. As an experienced player for this group, he is influencing the rest of the team by setting the standard of what is required and if all the players are at his level, then we are in a great place. I’m excited to see what this season brings, I’m expecting perhaps a grittier version of Joe Aston than what we have seen previously with his hunger and desire to compete.”
