Women’s League returns this weekend as Round 1 takes place in Worcester 4th/5th November.
New this year is Emerald Rollers, a guest team entry from Republic of Ireland. Following last season’s result, Mohawks 1 were promoted to Division 1 and have entered a second team. The increase in teams entering Division 2 is a positive sign of growth as the league continues to build, leading to Division 2 being split into Pool A and Pool B this year.

Round 2 – 3/4th February 2024 – Loughborough University
