NIHL Signing News


NIHL News

It has today been announced that Billingham Stars have signed Canadian forward Kevin Boyd who has made the move from Stayner Siskins alongside Head Coach Tom Brown. Playing ice hockey in the USHS-prep with Hoosac School during their 2013-14 season, Boyd then went on to ice with Ottawa Canadians in the EOJHL as well as featuring for Brampton Bombers and Kanata Lasers in the same season. Signing for Niagara Falls Canucks in 2015, Boyd tallied four goals and seven assists in thirty eight games before making the move to the Siskins. Accumulating forty four points in thirty nine games in his first season at the club, Boyd has since fulfilled the role of alternate captain, scoring twenty four goals and notching a further forty six assists to finish his most recent campaign as Stayner’s fourth highest points scorer. As a new addition to Billingham, Boyd will look to exhibit his skill when he takes to the ice with his new team in September.

Meanwhile, Solway Sharks have confirmed the re-signing of consistent blue liner Stuart Kerr who featured in thirty four league fixtures for the Dumfries outfit last season. With this his fifth campaign at Solway, Kerr’s ability does not go unnoticed, having previously featured for Braehead Clan in the Elite League and both Team GB’s Under 18s and Under 20s sides in recent seasons. Chipping in with a goal and six assists further to being a calm and composed member of the Sharks’ defensive unit, Kerr will continue to bring consistency to Solway’s blue line as he develops his game further with the guidance of Head Coach Martin Grubb. Joining fellow defencemen Josh Grieveson and Lewis Baldwin on Solway’s roster, Kerr will once again show himself to be a reliable and resolute presence on the ice.
