Telford Tigers are pleased to announce the signing of forward Kyle Ferguson for the forthcoming season. The 23 year old player is the younger brother of Tigers’ forward Harry Ferguson and will join his sibling on the roster. Kyle has spent the last three seasons in the Scottish National League playing for Aberdeen Lynx.
Kyle commented, “I’m excited to be joining the Telford Tigers after hearing a lot of great things about the organisation and I’m looking forward to having Tom Watkins as a coach. I’m ready to push myself to develop my game and I’m excited at challenging myself at a higher level. I’m also looking forward to be playing in front of the great fans in Telford and showing them how I can help the team.”
Tom Watkins, General Manager and Head Coach, commented on the signing of Ferguson:
“’Kyle is very keen to be here and I’m pleased to sign him up. I think his enthusiasm to step up to this level and his excitement to be a Tiger is what we want. He will do whatever it takes to help the team Obviously playing at National League level is a big difference from playing SNL level but I think Kyle fits exactly what we require for the role he will have. He wants to learn, he is very coachable, understands his own game to allow him play to his strengths which not many players do. He adds good size and is a strong kid who will keep it simple, uses his body to win battles, establish position and is happy to get his nose dirty.”
