The Venom HC U18 AAA program is proud to officially announce the signing of 2010-born forward, Damion Anderson, from Ashcroft, British Columbia.

Damion joins the Venom after a strong season with the Kamloops U15 AA Tier 3 program, where he displayed exceptional work ethic, speed, and a growing offensive presence.

His goal is to reach the junior hockey level within the next two years, and the organization is committed to helping him achieve that through structured player development, elite competition, and mentorship from experienced staff.

Venom HC GM & Head Coach Brady Douglas shared his thoughts on the signing:

“We’re really excited to add Damion to our group this season. He’s a player who fits exactly what we’re building here — hardworking, coachable, and hungry to improve every day. His skating and compete level stand out immediately, and he brings a strong two-way presence to our forward group. What impressed us most is his mindset off the ice — he’s focused, driven, and eager to put in the extra work to reach his goals. We believe Damion has a very bright future ahead, and we’re looking forward to helping him take that next step in his development.”
