SWEDEN SUPER 9'S OPEN NORDIC RUGBY LEAGUE SEASON

30 Apr 2012

Spartacus Reds from the Gothenburg area won the Sweden Super 9’s held at the home of defending champions, Borås Ravens. Reds defeated the hosts 30-16 in the opening clash and went through the round robin competition undefeated, downing the West Coast Masters and, in the decider, derby rivals Gothenburg Lions 6-0 in a tense, hard-fought contest.

In the third and fourth place play off, the Masters overcame the Ravens. The tournament was principally a recruitment drive especially for the national squad which proved to be fruitful as there were a number of new players involved. Pictured: WC Masters against Lions.
