Swindon Wildcats' 30th Anniversary Celebrations Underway

With less than a week away to the start of the Wildcats 30 years celebrations, tickets for events are selling fast!

Friday 9th December sees Ice Hockey legends from across the UK and world coming back to Swindon to have an intimate evening with loyal fans.

Legends include Daryl Lipsey, Gareth Endicott, Bryan Larkin, Alan Armour and a host of others. The current Wildcats team will also be attending and will be joining the Legends as they answer questions and telling stories from their time in Swindon.

Steve Nell, General Manager said ‘This is an Adults only event being held at The Campanile in Swindon. It starts at 7:30pm and is going to be an entertaining evening. This is the first time we will have so many past players in one room answering candid questions. Those who have bought tickets already have been told, they can ask what they like. We have about 28 tickets left and know these will sell quickly. Tickets can be bought from www.swindonwildcats.com

Some of the Legends attending the Friday's evening will be attending the Wildcats game against Telford on Saturdays. Players will be taking notes of how the Wildcats play and will aim to bring their A game to the main part of the weekend which is when the Wildcats Legends take on the current Wildcats team.

Player Manager Aaron Nell said "This is going to be an explosive game and not to be missed! Both teams are keen to win and have been sending video messages to each other on social media. We have had a few messages from past Wildcats Shane Moore, Jason Paul Thomas and Ryan Aldridge, who will be playing for the Legends on Sunday, telling us that they will win and to watch our backs. Not sure they have the legs anymore to win against the current team but I’m sure they’ll give us and the public a great game to watch."

The Legends shirts will be Auctioned off after the game on Sunday and there will be an Official Programme and Legends Calendar to buy in the Wildcats shop.
