About Adam Summerfield

  • Adam Summerfield (born 30 August 1990 in Whitehaven, England) is an English professional ice hockey goaltender, playing for the Manchester Phoenix of the EPL.
  • Summerfield is a young goaltender who has shown promise at under-18 level and so has been promoted to back-up for the Elite League squad for the 2008/09 season by head coach Tony Hand. Summerfield showed promise at Under-16 level, playing for the Flintshire Flames, the junior team of the Flintshire Freeze.
  • This led to his selection for the Under-18 squad of the Manchester Phoenix following trials at the Altrincham Ice Dome.
  • In his first season with the Phoenix, Summerfield continued to impress, managing a 2.00 GAA in 13 games and claiming a shut-out against the Nottingham Jaguars.
  • This led to his promotion to the Elite League squad, replacing Aran Fox and Summerfield made his short debut coming on to replace Scott Fankhouser in a 5-2 loss for the Phoenix in Yorkshire against the Sheffield Steelers.
  • Summerfield continued to make a number of appearances for the rest of the season, but was still employed as back-up. His continued professionalism and work-rate ensured that Tony Hand re-signed Summerfield for the Phoenix for the 2008/09 season, where he will hope to again make regular EIHL appearances despite his young age.
  • After again impressing in the close season, Summerfield made a number of substitute appearances for the Phoenix and regularly trained with the Elite League squad.
  • He was re-signed by the Phoenix to play for the organisation in the 2009/10 season of the EPL.
