Sidney Elliott has transferred from the Fraser Valley Cascades for the upcoming season.

“I feel like I am a very aggressive player. I can move fast and make good touches. I am quick upfront, and that’s why I like playing upfront. I can get through, and get behind defenders. I am hoping I can play in a game this year. That would be nice.”

UNBC Head Coach Neil Sedgwick has known Elliott for a number of years, having scouted her as a youth player on Vancouver Island.

“We are really thrilled to add Sidney to our program. She comes from a strong Upper Island Storm program, where she played alongside Camryn. They certainly have a great understanding of each other, and Sidney has taken that and really fits in well with all of our players. I believe she will continue to take big strides and grow substantially within the Timberwolves program. We are glad to have her at UNBC.”

The Brooks Secondary School graduate will study Environmental Planning at UNBC.
