"The event really showcased the incredible sporting talent in the Derbyshire Dales. So it is fantastic for Derwent Hockey to be recognised as a leading club in the Dales. The U14s did tremendously well last season, and I know I speak for the whole club when I say we are all incredibly proud of them. And their award is the icing on top of the cake."
