BHUK Welsh Conference

19/08/2026

Players from two of the Welsh Conference teams will be joining forces for their South Wales Reivers team debut at Nationals Tier 2 level at the end of this month.

After an impressive and highly successful first year competing in Tier 3 last season, your Aberdare Skiprats Ball Hockey Club and Cardiff Bay Thunder Ball Hockey Club are back as a combined force with the South Wales Reivers 💪

Following promotion to Ball Hockey UK Tier 2 Nationals for 2026-27, the team faces the prospect of some tough but exciting opposition!
We start our season at the end of the month, taking on the Sheffield Knights in a double-header format.

As always - let’s get into one! 🐀⚡️🥷
