Manchester Phoenix have signed 22-year-old Sheffield-born defenceman Ben Morgan as their fourth summer addition.

He said: "I'm well aware of the rivalry between teams from either side of the Pennines, I'm looking forward to it."

Player-coach Tony Hand said: "I've told him I will encourage him to get forward and contribute offensively too.

"Ben is a solid player, skates well and plays a sensible aggressive defensive role. He takes the body and we need a bit more of that this year."
