BARNSLEY Hockey Club's men's team went three points clear at the top of their league with a 5-1 win at home to previous leaders Lindum.
Captain James Shaw scored a hat-trick with Paul Winstanley and Kieran Ryan also on target. The Reds were 3-0 up at half-time then, after Lindum replied, added two more.
Barnsley have now won eight in a row in Peak and Wold Division One and are unbeaten in 12 since September.
They have won 11, drawn two and lost one ahead of Saturday’s game at second-bottom Alford and District.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
