Honey Badgers Win Summer League

Badgers once again proved their dominance in the league and took home the Cambridge Touch trophy.

In the first half Badgers built up a strong lead which Superheros never managed to recover from. The final score was 9 – 6.
Well done Badgers!

In the other games, Bury beat Nightwings to take home the Plate and Dukes overcame Nobodys to take the Bowl.

So Congratulations to Badgers, Bury and Dukes.

Nationals Part 2

Midlands Women are National Champions

Midlands Women take the National title, taking the trophy away from the South East for the first time since the tournament’s inception

Write up by Kat Jones:
Although the Midlands sides didn’t have a long preparation time ahead of the tournament, many of the girls chosen for the WO side had played together either at the Premiership Permit or Senior Euro’s competitions in Edinburgh earlier in the summer giving them a great grounding as a team.
