Telford Tigers are pleased to announce that Josef Lauder will return to the Tigers 2 roster for the 2025/26 campaign.
The 17-year-old defenceman, a product of the club’s junior system, made a strong impression last season with his composure on the blue line and his ability to contribute offensively. Lauder recorded 20 points in 31 games during Tigers 2’s successful treble-winning season, underlining his growing influence within the team.
Josef commented on his return to Telford;
“I’m really excited and grateful for the opportunity to rejoin the club. It means a lot to be back on the ice with such a great group of players and can’t wait to face the challenges that the new league will bring. I’m looking forward to giving my best, learning from the valuable experience in the team, and contributing wherever I can.
Last year’s treble winning season was special in front of the Telford fans — we can’t wait to play in front of you again.”
Telford Tigers 2 coach Jason Silverthorn, commented on the return of Keyes:
“Josef was an important signing for us, a Telford U18 who is showing a lot of promise and having made a great first impression last year it was important to get him back. This season it will be all about helping him continue to grow at that next level, playing the matchup and minutes against the other teams better players which he has already showed he is more than capable of. He made his mark last season showing a calm and poise alongside Keyesy and we will look to build on that with the goal of him being a National player in a few years.”
