At just 19, Tombs has already carved out a reputation as a calm, puck-savvy blueliner who reads the game with maturity beyond his years. His ability to remain composed under pressure and distribute the puck intelligently has made him a standout among his peers—and it’s this steady, confident style of play that caught the attention of Head Coach Karl Lennon during the recent England U19 Showcase.
“Preston comes to us a few years into his development at this level. He’s still making his name and I think we can help him to fulfil his potential here in Kent. Of course he’s played against us many times in recent seasons, but on top I got to watch him during the Showcase weekend U19 England v Scotland matches (alongside Dylan and Nikolai). He led that team well and stood out when it comes to his comfort on the puck. I think he’ll bring a different dynamic to our D core next season. Great to have you with us Preston.”
