Kubo Recruitment are proud to announce that we are
sponsoring the home shirt of MK Lightning’s young Defenceman Ed Knaggs and the
GB junior international netminder Jordan Hedley’s away shirt.
Although both players are very young, Knaggs just 17 and
Hedley 19, the young stars have already proved how talented they are.
Ed Knaggs has been
named in the Great Britain U18 roster which will compete in the World Junior
Championships in Romania in April. Ed also plays for MK Thunder and represented
Great Britain in last month’s U20 level World Junior Championships in
France. Great Britain beat the Ukraine there and it was during this
match that he was awarded the title of best player in the team.
Jordan Hedley |
Jordan Hedley learnt
his skills playing for MK Storm and MK Thunder before making his debut for MK
Lightning in 2012. He had great success with the team during 2013-2014 before
leaving the team in the summer of 2015 to join the Swindon Wildcats.
However to the
delight of the MK Lightning fans, Jordan returns to the MK Lightning team next
season where his interest in the sport first materialised: “Milton Keynes is my
home. I used to watch the Kings play when I was just three years old, standing
on a step to see over the plexi!
“I can’t wait to get
training and for the season to start. I know I’ve still got a few more years to
grow and develop yet and I intend to do everything I can to be the best I can
be. It feels good to be home!”
Kubo wish both of our players all the best for the
up and coming season and we look forward to seeing them play.
