Whitley Warriors welcome back hardworking forward Shaun Kippin to their roster as he heads into his fifteenth season at the club.
35-year-old Kippin first made his debut for the Warriors during their 2002-03 season and featured in a further twelve campaigns for the outfit punctuated by a spell with Deeside Dragons from 2012 to 2014. Three-time league title winner Kippin then opted to retire from the sport following his 2018-19 campaign but happily made the decision to return to Hillheads in December 2019, having previously accumulated 254 points across 275 league games for the Warriors in the ENL and NIHL 1 North combined.
Kippin will join Harry Harley in the Alternate Captain role for the duration of the upcoming season, having had experience as stand-in Captain during Dean Holland’s lengthy suspension last season.
Welcome back Shaun!
