The Romford Raiders are delighted to announce the re-signing of netminder Cole Ceci for the 2026/27 season, securing one of the club’s key players for another campaign.
Ceci returns following an impressive first season with the Raiders, where his consistency, composure and work ethic quickly established him as a fan favourite and a vital presence within the locker room. Renowned for his strong positional play and ability to make key saves at crucial moments, Ceci will once again be entrusted with anchoring the Raiders’ defence as the club looks to build a competitive squad heading into the new season.
Last season Ceci won the defenceman of the year and the coveted Players Player of the year Awards and broke 3 records for the Raiders in his debut season. He had most minutes in goal during a season (3,578), most shots faced (2,238) and most saves (2,207). Ceci has also become involved with the Raiders Junior Academy and we are delighted to welcome him back to the Raiders family.
Speaking on the re-signing, the club said:
“Cole was a priority for us. He brings professionalism, quality and a calm presence that gives confidence to the entire team. We’re absolutely delighted to have him back in Romford for another season.”
Ceci added:
“I’m really excited and honoured to be back with the Raiders again next season. Romford is a fantastic place to be and I’m looking forward to getting back in front of the fans”
The Romford Raiders would like to thank supporters for their continued backing and look forward to announcing further signings as preparations for the 2026/27 season continue. Season tickets remain on sale, reserve your seats today.
