Not to be outclassed, the younger team, the Angels, raised their game to show they can compete with the best with a fantastic Bronze in London and a Bronze in Cardiff securing Welsh Champions in their class. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The Clubs success didn’t stop there, being invited to compete in the Wintercup in Belgium in the Clubs first European international, both teams having to step up a category to compete. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
