Whitley Warriors are delighted to announce the re-signing of skilled forward Callum Queenan.
Having progressed through the junior ranks at Whitley Bay to make his debut with the Warriors in their 2013-14 campaign, Queenan quickly impressed and went on to play a further two seasons at Hillheads. Whilst playing his second senior season of ice hockey, Queenan was called up to represent Team GB at the World Junior Championships, icing in 5 games with the Under 18s side further to winning a bronze medal at the tournament.
After lining up with Whitley for a third consecutive campaign, Queenan opted for three seasons in the GMHL with Canada’s Meaford Knights, tallying 35 goals and 50 assists in 104 league games.
A return to the Warriors’ line-up in 2019 saw Queenan average a point per league game to help his side achieve silverware success. He has played in the Maroon and Gold since and is already looking ahead to the upcoming season.
“I’m looking forward to being back on the ice with the lads and seeing the fans again,” Queenan told us. “Hopefully this season we’ll be able to bring home some silverware.”
“Callum had a solid season for us scoring some good goals,” Head Coach Tony Hand said. “He is a player that can contribute even more this season and I am looking forward to having him back this season.”
Welcome back, Callum!
