The Bees have now scored 42 goals in 4 friendlies and conceded nothing during the weekend.

England international, Simon Egerton, who has scored 10 of Beeston’s pre-season goals, commented, “I am really enjoying my hockey at the moment. The team are creating so many chances it’s a forward’s dream to be in this squad.  There is a real sense of expectation at Beeston and all the players are working hard as we prepare for the opening Premiership game at Cannock in two weeks.”
