Well, Tuesday 25th October will certainly live long in the memory for the Manchester Storm players, as we had global superstar Justin Bieber join us here at SilverBlades Altrincham for an on ice session!

The young superstar is a massive ice hockey fan, and played in his early years, so he was more than capable of taking full part in the session with the pros! He was a true gent with all the players & staff, so much so that he took the team out for a couple of drinks post practice.

Storm GM, Neil Russell, was delighted to finally get Bieber on the ice with the Storm team, “It took a lot of planning and communication backwards and forwards over the past 10 days, but we got there in the end! Bieber had a ball with the guys out on the ice which was great to see, and for the players themselves, what an experience for them to skate with a global superstar. He got some bad press whilst in Manchester, but i have to say, he was a very polite, mannerly & respectful to us all during his visit. The amount of media interest in Justin skating with the Storm has been incredible, both here in the UK & back in North America. It was a pleasure to have Justin Bieber skate with us.

Storm Captain, Trevor Johnson, had the following to say about having Bieber skate with the team, “It was incredible, the guys were anxious about it before we got out there on the ice, but once we got skating it was awesome fun. He can play too, i think we were all super impressed by his skating ability and skills. The guys all treated him like a normal person, and i think he responded well to that. He even treated us to a few drinks post practice at a local bar, where he played darts and generally shot the breeze with us, which was really cool of him. All in all, a night that myself, the players, and importantly the Storm Organisation will never forget!”
