HALIFAX, NS (November 19, 2025) -- The Halifax Thunderbirds today announced that the team has signed defender Nathan Fehr to a one-year contract. 

Fehr, 21, has played one year in the National Lacrosse League, having spent last year with Philadelphia. The Wings selected him in the fifth round (60th overall) in the 2024 NLL Draft. 

In seven games last season, the 6-foot, 200-pound defender registered seven loose balls and six caused turnovers while going 44-for-106 on face-offs (41.5%).

The Niagara Falls, Ontario product also just wrapped up his junior lacrosse career this past summer with the St. Catharines Athletics, playing a pivotal role on the team's back end en route to an appearance in the Minto Cup.
