Romford Buccaneers Secure Netminding Duo for 2025/26 Season

The Romford Buccaneers are delighted to announce that goaltenders Sonny Phillips and Max Van Mullem have signed for the 2025/26 season.

Phillips, 28, returns for his third year as a Buccaneer after making the move across Essex from long-time rivals Chelmsford Chieftains in 2022. A fan favourite for both his big saves and bigger personality, Sonny has been a cornerstone between the pipes since joining Romford and brings with him a wealth of experience.

Joining him in the crease is 17-year-old Max Van Mullem, who will be with the Buccaneers on a two-way agreement with the Romford Raiders. Max has already shown on many occasions that he has the ability to be a starting goalie, pulling off saves beyond his years. This hot prospect will undoubtedly benefit from working alongside Raiders netminding duo Cole Ceci and Owen Rider, making him one to watch for the future.

Welcome back to Sonny & Max!
