A squad of seven fighters — a blend of local talent and university students — will represent the club in the capital, and preparations are well underway as they look to make their mark on the competition.

Head coach Jamie Beasley said: “The competition runs for two weekends and hopefully we can get a decent run of results. The lads are keen to do well.”
