Talented young Paisley Buddy is making a name for himself in the ice hockey world after a successful stint with the national team.
Ten-year-old Logan Cumming is fresh off a fantastic season at club and international level.
Logan, who plays for Lanarkshire Lightning, was part of the team that won the league and cup for back-to-back seasons and was named Most Valuable Player in this season's final.
And to cap off a memorable season, the rising star was named Scotland's MVP in their win over England in June, beating their arch rivals in all four games.
His mother, Caroline, and father, Derek, are pleased to see Logan's progress and say they see games as a family outing.
“We are all so proud of our son,” Caroline says. “My husband sometimes takes videos of him, and I can see the difference between just watching him and him actually making an effort.”

“Logan works hard and practices whenever he can. He treats games like family outings and brings the whole family with him wherever he goes.”
Ice hockey as a sport is becoming more popular in Scotland, with more people playing and watching their local teams.
The Glasgow Clan, who announced earlier this month that a record-breaking 1,700 season tickets for the 2024-25 season had been sold in just three weeks, know this growth better than anyone.
Logan says he wants to be a professional ice hockey player when he grows up.
He said: “Playing ice hockey is a lot of fun and nothing compares to it except my family. Getting the chance to play for my country and against arch rivals England means the world to me.”
“Becoming a professional ice hockey player would be a dream come true. I would love to play for the Carolina Hurricanes or Glasgow Clan, but I'll play for any team I can.”
It hasn't always been easy for the family, who suffered the tragedy of losing a baby last year, a moment Caroline and Derek poignantly described as a “dark time”.
In the Scottish Cup final, Logan scored a goal in honour of his brother, dedicating it to him with a babyish gesture that brought tears to the family.
“It's amazing that after what he went through he still wants to play,” Caroline added, “and to even have a little bit of emotion in his celebration is beyond words. He's just a caring, kind, loving person.”
With the youngster nearly done with his development with the U-12 team, he has been asked to train with the U-14 team and is set to be promoted to the U-14 squad.
Derek expressed his gratitude to the club, national team coaches and sponsors who have supported Logan's journey.”
He said: “We'd like to extend a huge thank you to Lanarkshire Lightning and the Scotland coaching staff for sponsorship, as well as Indian Sean Paisley. We'd also like to thank West Primary School and the Glenvale 2013 football team for their full support of Logan.”
