Royals and Rebels Start Season
at GB Open

The Royals and Rebels started the 2017 season with entry in the GB Open. The club took 25 players to the event split over the two teams.

The Royals entered the B level, wining 3 of their 4 games. Unfortunately the game they lost was the head to head against the group winners. That one defeat cost the Royals a chance at some early season silverware.

The Rebels entered the C Level, and didn't fair as well. They unfortunately failed to win a game, but did gain lots of early season practice.

The teams are now preparing for the next event, Windsor First Ball, on May 6th and a hope to improve on their performances.

Rebels Claim first Silverware of the Season at WMSL Spring Indoor

The first silverware of the season is in the Trophy Cabinet curtoursy of the Rebels winning the Plate Final at the WMSL Spring Indoor tournament. The Rebels finished their Group Stage campaign, with 2-2 record and placing 3rd. This put them into the Cup/Plate elimination game. Winners advancing to the Cup bracket, loser to the Plate. The Rebels came up against an old foe in that game, KK's, and like previous encounters were unable to best their nemisis, going down 5- -21. While disappointing to lose out on a Cup berth, the Rebels now faced another old foe, Bracknell Scorchers. This was an oppertunity to banish the memory of the recent league encounter, where the Scorchers had come out on top. Late on a Sunday afternoon, the Rebels secured an much needed competition win with an 18-3 victory. With the new season around the corner, the hope is that this is first on many boht the Rebels, and the club win this season.
Next up for the Rebels is the GB Open event on April 9th.
