Telford Tigers are delighted to announce the return of defenseman Deakan Fielder for the 2025/26 season. The 25 year old Telford born player returns for his fifth season at the club.
Deakan commented on his signing for the club,
“I’m really excited to be back in a Tigers jersey for my 5th season. Despite a frustrating end to last year I think I made some good pro-gress to my game and I believe that I have the best opportunity to keep improving here at home. I can’t wait to be back playing in front of the fans, whose support has been incredible through some rough times. A new season, a new opportunity to fight for silverware! I will see you all in September!”
Tom Watkins, Head Coach and General Manager, commented on the signing of Fielder.
“Deakan is a player that gives you everything every night, loves to battle, compete and will stick up for teammates with no questions asked. He has a good work ethic and desire to be a Tiger which you can see he really cares about.
He’s at an age now where he can add influ-ence and leadership to the locker room on a vocal level but also by playing heavy every night, winning those net front battles and demanding more from his teammates.”
