Whitley Warriors are thrilled to announce the return of defenceman Steven Chalmers for the 2022-23 campaign.
After playing ice hockey for OHA’s Under 18s AAA side in Canada, Chalmers returned to Britain in 2010 to make his senior debut in the Elite League with Braehead Clan, playing 46 games, whilst also icing in 5 games for Team GB’s Under 20s outfit at the World Junior Championships where he collected a bronze medal.
He made the switch to Dundee Stars in the season which followed, further to representing Team GB’s Under 20s side for a second time, and then embarked on four seasons with EIHL side Coventry Blaze from 2012, featuring in 135 league games in total and chipping in with 7 goals and 5 assists.
After taking a break from the sport between 2016 and 2018, Chalmers enjoyed some ice time in Sweden’s Division 2 and Division 3 with HC Flyers and Nora HC respectively before returning to Britain to play for Hull Pirates in the NIHL where he accumulated 11 points in 35 league games during their 2019-20 campaign.
29-year-old Chalmers signed for Whitley Warriors at the start of the 2021-22 season and promptly cemented himself as a fan favourite with 35 points from 33 games. He will again wear shirt #28 this season.
Welcome back Steven!
