Welcome to a very busy weekend for British Dodgeball!
Opening with an explosive final round of the Midlands Junior League Under 11’s and 14’s division. With all to play for in the Under 11s League, Leicester Cobras and Ravens are set for a really tight final day. In the Under 14’s category, a close deciding day is coming between Virtue Empire, Leicester Panthers and Ravens Blue, all closing in on the top spot. Good luck to all teams competing!
On the international circuit, all eyes are focused on the Northern Ireland Knights and the England Lions in a very exciting Home Nations League fixture taking place in Bangor, Northern Ireland. This will be an intense rematch, particularly in the mens division, after their previous face off at the European Championships where the Knights charged in with a victory over the Lions, who are out for revenge in what promises to be a seriously explosive fixture between the two nations.
Keep up to date with how the teams are doing in the Home Nations League
Heading over to Nottingham, the University Open is looking to be a fiercely competitive event, completely full of women and mens uni teams. Who will come out on top and reign victorious? Keep up-to date to find out more!
Saturday isn’t the only jam-packed day this weekend, with the second round of the mixed leagues falling on Sunday. With London Storm and Leamington Spartans sitting at the top of the league, one of them will fall. Find out who soon enough!
It is a busy week with leaders courses in Blackburn and Birmingham as well as a referee training course in Sheffield and level 2 training courses in Manchester and Norwich. The leaders course in Blackburn is part of a wider program with the Association of Colleges Sport to train students across their affiliated colleges in their leadership academies. The leaders will then put their training into practice to deliver primary school festivals and after school clubs in their local areas and support British Dodgeball with our Primary School Competition Pathway.
We look forward to welcoming team GB back from Cancun too, more on that to come.
