He said: “In the Derbyshire Dales we are seeing a big increase in the number of youngsters taking up hockey. The boys are the current U12 Derbyshire Champions and Ellie Watton, who started her hockey playing for Matlock, is now part of the senior England squad. So there has never been a better time to try hockey.”
