The WCC LVII has now been completed, and Arra Pathos managed by Pesaola have been crowned World Club Cup Champions for the 1st time beating former Winners Dresden Patriots, managed by Neme 21-37 at the Rudolf-Harbig-Stadion Stadium in Germany..
The noise must have been deafening in the Countries Largest Stadium, as the two sides met, but the 0-20 score in favour of the away team, proved too much of a mountain to overcome for the patriots, but well done to both teams.
A big well done to all the other managers who took out the trophies in the groups.....some very fine, well contested efforts

Next we have the prestigious "Iorwerth Award" which was created in honour of BR manager and WCC Founder Iorwerth, and it is awarded to the team or teams that we believe have played throughout each season's competition with the commitment, passion and spirit, that was originally intended for the WCC, when the competition idea was conceived.
This season I am awading the trophy to scothawk 's Alpha Company who had another good run in the Plate, but ended up in 4th Place, scothawk has taken part regularly for close to 30 seasons or so, and it is managers like him who keep coming back season after season, which makes this comp the oldest and best......
So I am proud to announce this season's Iorwerth Award goes to;
WCC LVII IORWERTH AWARD
