Haggis Cup on for April 10th

Europe

The SARFL in conjunction with the Glasgow Sharks have announced Scotland's Aussie Rules 9-a-side Club Tournament the "Haggis Cup" will be played in Glasgow on the 10th April 2010.

The Haggis Cup is now in its 7th year, having previously fielded teams from across England, Ireland, Wales, Belgium and France.

Organisers are hoping for at least 6 teams for the competition including Edinburgh and Glasgow to take on reigning Cup holders Aberdeen. The tournament will take place over one day and be played under current European 9-a-side rules in an express format with a post tournament function.

The Scottish Puffins will also soon be holding trials for the national team, which will be heading to Italy for a 4-team tournament on July 4th.

For further information about the Haggis Cup or to register interest in taking part, please contact SARFL President Dougie Hunter via the SARFL website.

No worries, that's what we're here for!

Do the extra three teams you've got include the Icelanders? I heard talk of them doing a Glasgow/Dublin double tour that weekend.

Just got word the Iceland aren't coming. So as far as I know its Huddersfield, Gateshead and a WAFL representative team. Montpellier have shown interest and we are hoping the Paris Cockeriels come back again.
