STREET hockey star Peter Beales has just returned from the European championships with a gold medal around his neck.
The Harlow whizzkid and his team, the Demon Flayers, beat teams from all over Europe to take the title.
Beales was also involved in the Bauer sponsored skater hockey event at Finsbury Park a fortnight ago where his team were again unbeatable, taking the overall title once again.
This weekend, the Flayers travelled to Barnsley for the national championships group pool tournament and the chance to progress to the main final. Sadly, they did not make it, but when one considers that they were up against players aged 18, with three more years of experience, coming fifth in their group was a tremendous achievement.
The side qualified for the Barnsley event by finishing third in their preliminary league.
The next major tournament is the world championships, sponsored by Bauer, which will be held in the United States in January 1999.
Any individuals of companies that would be interested in sponsoring Peter Beales, or the Demon Flayers as a whole, during or prior to that event should ring Annette Beales on 01279 861410.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
