Rugby League is one of the toughest and most brutal sports in the world. Those who play it know that serious injuries can occur at any time. Those who are injured and make it back to the field are to be commended. One local chap has seen more adversity than most and his ability to come back and compete in his chosen sport is unparalleled in the twin towns.
Chris Beal has never sought accolades or recognition in his favourite sport; Rugby League. In fact, he was taken aback and even a little evasive when asked to participate with the Twin Town Times as a local legend. Indeed, such is his humility; it took more than a little coaxing to get him to agree to participate at all. Chris is the youngest Local Legend we have written about in the Twin Town Times, since we first began on January 15 2014.
Just over 2 months ago his career came to a sudden end whilst playing against the Bungendore Tigers at his home ground, McLean Oval. This weekend, he will watch his beloved Harden Hawks face that same side at Bungendore for the chance to host the George Tooke Grand Final.
