Nationals Preview

The nationals weekend is upon use.  6 games to win it.  Are the Barbarians up for it????
The three qualifying games and then a guaranteed quarter awaits.  What happens then is up to use.

First Qualifying game vs South London Snipers looks to be one of the tougher games looking at there league standing down in the southern league.  A team that can find the net, hopefully the Barbarians can use there home advantage to gain the share of the points.

Next up is Bourne End another team from the southern league.  They had mixed results during there league season but as always these teams are of a very good standard.

Final qualifying game is a against Cleckheaton.  A team we know well from the North East league.  Our regular season games have been fairly close with Barbarians taking both the wins however Cleckheaton has a great offencive unit that will cause a threat to the Barbarians.

Dan Ancliff (Barbarians Captains) believes that its the best opportunity for the team since it joined BIPHA to go all the way and be crowned champions.  He said the team was well balanced and been training hard.  The team has had its ups and downs during the regular season.  He also felt that the team lost some games that they should have probably won.  This has been the driving factor during our preparation period. 

First game 11.20am
