As the British Ice Hockey season comes to a close, the time is almost upon us to celebrate one of the most committed players to ever wear the Swindon Wildcats jersey. Sam Bullas first joined the Wildcats back in 2009, and ten years later, the battling number 13 still proudly ices in Wiltshire.
There has been lots of work over the last few weeks and months getting everything together, but we are now less than a week away from the testimonial on Saturday 27th April, face-off 6:15PM at the Better Link Centre. We hope you will all be able to join Bully in celebrating his ten years in Swindon.
Speaking ahead of the event Sam added:
It’s exciting to be this close to the game. We’ve been working really hard since the end of the Wildcats season to ensure everything is going to be a night to remember. The shirts arrived recently and they look awesome, it’s really hit home how close we are and I couldn’t be more excited.
I can’t wait to ice along some legends from my time in Swindon. There are loads of activities planned for during the testimonial game such as a skills competition, own and loan jerseys, a shirt off the back competition to win my testimonial jersey. On top of all this, we have the merchandise which is available to order now.
We will also be having a very special 50/50 competition where 50% goes to the winner and 50% goes to a charity very close to me and my family so hopefully we can all dig deep and raise lots of money for Cancer Research UK.
I really hope you can all make it on the Saturday , it really will be a celebration of the last ten years of Swindon Wildcats hockey, and it is going to be a lot of fun on the evening as well.
Tickets are selling well but you can still grab your seats by visiting Wildcat Sports or you will be able to grab your tickets on the day. So make sure you come down, celebrate 10 years of Bully and get your summer hockey fix!
