Road To TBC

With our new training squad hot off the press and one training session under our belts, the team is off to Cardiff to compete in Road to TBC hosted by our pals over at Team Wales on the 26th and 27th of November.

This year’s event has grown since the successes of 2014, when Wales hosted Ireland, Scotland and West Indies. Now, in 2016 there are 8 teams competing:

France
Spain
Scotland
Ireland
Sweden
Wales
West Indies
Belgium

This is your first chance to see the team in action (and get your chance to buy TI t-shirts) since the 2014 Blood & Thunder World Cup.
