Biography
From Ballymoney, the upcoming season will mark the homegrown 38-year-old’s 16th season with the Giants, having first joined the club during the 2009/10 campaign. Over his 15 seasons to date, Dickson has made 52 appearances for the Giants and been involved with 14 championships – seven Elite League titles, five Challenge Cups, and two Elite League Playoff titles.
As is often said, the importance of Dickson cannot be measured by stats and appearances. The long-time backup netminder does much of his hard work behind closed doors in practice, and his willingness to go the extra mile in team preparations has also endeared him to scores of Belfast Giants players who have played in the city.
Off the ice, Dickson is a respected figure within the locker room — known for his humility, work ethic, and deep understanding of what it means to be a Belfast Giant. His presence brings continuity and connection, linking past and present teams through his long-standing commitment to the club.
Dickson began his career in the Irish Ice Hockey League with the Belfast City Bruins and Castlereagh Spartans between 2007 and 2010, before joining Gillingham-based Invicta Dynamos, posting a .912 save percentage across 19 games played in the 2010/11 season. Ahead of the 2011/12 season, Dickson took the step into professional ice hockey, joining the Belfast Giants on a permanent basis.
