Devils retain Perella-Fox
The Solent Devils have retained utility player Calumn Perella-Fox for the 2023-24 season.
The 29 year old Scottish native will be entering his 7th senior season with the Devils having spent his junior career with the club.
Upon re-signing with the squad Perella-Fox spoke of his eagerness to get back at it:
“I’m excited to be back for another year and can’t wait to get going again, back with the lads infront of the best fan in the league!”
Speaking on his latest signing, head coach – Alex Murray spoke of the importance in this signature:
“Calumn is one of the most underrated players in this league, he is a genuine shut down player who has great defensive awareness in his own zone. He is quick and reads the game really well. I was delighted at how he adapted when moving back to defence. Foxy formed a great partnership with Coley and I will be looking for the same level of performance next season”
Speaking on his transition back into D last year, the former Wightlink Tiger spoke of his enjoyment in the change
“It felt good going back to D, even though I enjoyed playing forward and getting to score a few goals, I feel like I really found my feet again in D hopefully I can keep that going this year.”
Perella – Fox scored 11 points in 31 games, in cup and league, however there is some unfinished business after missing the play offs last season:
“there is definitely unfinished business with the playoffs. I was gutted to miss it this year, it’s what we all play for each year and the boys played so well, it was hard not to be apart of it, I look forward to getting back to the finals weekend this season”
Calumn will continue to wear the #44 jersey and Paul and Jan Baverstock are pleased to continue thier sponsorship of his shirts for the upcoming season.
