    Hand snaps up Holland early

    Manchester Phoenix head coach Tony Hand has made his first summer signing in preparation for the 2010/11 season with feisty winger Dean Holland putting pen to paper.

    The 21 year old Geordie is an addition to the home grown talent already on the Phoenix roster for the new season and has spent the past few seasons playing for the Newcastle Vipers in the Elite Ice Hockey League.

    Tony Hand said, “I’m very pleased to have signed a player like Dean so early in the summer. He’s an energy player and will bring some grit to our team for next season.

    “Dean will bring another excellent work ethic to our roster and I’m sure the fans will like what they see from him.”

    He joins Phoenix returnees Adam Summerfield, Luke Boothroyd, Greg Wood and Ben Wood who have all signed on for next term.

    Holland said, “Manchester is a big city and in sporting terms demands winners, and I’m coming to the Phoenix to do exactly that – to win.”
