Chelmsford Chieftains are delighted to announce the return of Richie Pickering. The 25 year-old defenceman has been a regular face at the Riverside making the full time move to Chieftains in the 2022 season. We’re thrilled he has signed again this season. 

Chieftains head coach Lewis Clifford said "Richie is a top lad who really developed as the season went on, he knows where he needs to improve and he worked hard at it from start to finish in the season, he has good size and skates well, and whilst he’s not super young he’s still very much developing his knowledge and experience and becoming a more valuable member of the team all the time. I’m looking forward to working with Richie again this season and I know all the boys are happy to have him back with the group.”

Richie commented about his return "Buzzing to be back ! Last years play off win was unreal! I’m sure you’ll all agree. Excited to see what happens this season with what Cliff is producing and with the other teams in the league! Especially with the best barn and fans! See you all in September 👍🏻”

Welcome back to the Black ‘n’ Gold! 

Richie’s away and warm up shirts are available to own and loan. If you are interested please email!
