More about Sam Ellis

I started playing ice hockey in Sydney five years ago, after moving from Perth.  I began my hockey career playing field hockey, and then when given the opportunity to give ice hockey a go, I did and here I am today playing for the Goannas.

I am a qualified official, both reffing and lining hockey games regularly, about two to three games per week, which helps to keep my fitness level at its best.  I also attend training sessions as much as I can and play golf whenever time allows me to do so.

This season I plan on improving my overall game performance.  Some of the specifics in order to that include; not panicking with the puck when I receive it under pressure, but to instead  take and space which will allow me to set up the smart play.
