This added competition comes as the 2019 Britbowl Champions have been hit hard by the pandemic and no longer have enough registered players to compete in Division 1 and will now drop down to compete in Division 2.

Knights Head Coach Jack O’Beirne said: “I am looking forward to the challenge. We know Black Country Vipers are historically a great junior program and we are excited to test ourselves against top competition.

“If we perform like I know we can then we can beat anyone.”
