BRAMLEY BUFFALOES kick off their season this weekend with a home encounter against NOTTINGHAM OUTLAWS.
After their game last week fell victim to the wet weather, Bramley will be desperate to get their season underway with a home win against the midlands outfit.
League leaders HUDDERSFIELD UNDERBANK RANGERS go looking for their third straight win when they travel to KIPPAX KNIGHTS.
The Knights suffered a shock defeat at Hemel Stags in their last outing and will be keen to return to winning ways as soon as possible.
COVENTRY BEARS will look to make it two wins from their opening two games when they travel to SOUTH ALBANS CENTURIONS.
The Centurions bounced back from two opening round defeats with a great win over Kippax so a close game could be on the cards.
WARRINGTON WIZARDS head to the principality where SOUTH WALES HORNETS will be waiting.
The hosts will be desperate to recover from last weekend’s heavy defeat at St Albans, whilst the Wizards will be looking for the points to maintain their top-three spot.
BRISTOL SONICS – who are looking for the first eve points at this level – hit the road on Sunday as they head to take on HEMEL STAGS.
The Stags are currently second in the table and the Sonics could well have their work cut out.
