Aston returns for his 4th season with the club after making his debut for the senior team in the 2015/16 season.

He contributed 24 points last season, his best points production at senior level in his career so far.

Joe commented, “I’m pleased to be returning for the 2019/20 season. I have enjoyed playing at this level and will work hard for the team on every shift. I am keen to be part of a trophy winning team and I’m confident that Tom has put together a very competitive roster.”

Tom Watkins, Head Coach and General Manager, said, “Joe had a strong second half to the season last year and I hope he continues with that progression. He’s quick and a straight line player who, when he plays a direct simple game, is at his best.  He looks after himself, is in good shape and I think he can add to his game over the coming years.

“He is another player who is from Telford and has come through our junior club and NIHL 2 team. That development pathway is very important to us all at the club and it shows others that with dedication there are opportunities for all.”
