The Aspray Chester Deeside Dragons are excited to announce the signing of defenceman Will Harper for the 24-25 season!
Will joins us from the Widnes Wild, where he spent parts of 2 seasons there. Before that, Will played all his junior and senior hockey in Sheffield, including a brief stint with the Sheffield Steeldogs of the NIHL National Division.
Last season, Will registered 5 goals and 10 assists in 30 games for the Wild. The Dragons are looking forward to welcoming another promising young player into the fold, and continuing their plan to develop talented young Brits this season and beyond.
GM Shaun Bebbington said about the signing, “Will is a player that always stood out when the Dragons played the Wild. He makes life difficult for his opponents, he skates well, and he stands up for his team. He’s a great addition to the team, someone any team would enjoy having play for them.”
“I’m really looking forward to playing for the Dragons this season. It’s a good set of lads in the locker room, and I believe we have a team that can push for silverware this year. The set up the Dragons organisation have at Deeside is amazing, and I can’t wait to get on the ice in front of the fans and show what I can do.” Will Harper on signing for Deeside
