Competitors

Competition was fierce this year with 47 teams applying. Every application had merit and it was a tough evening of decision making. In the end, 32 teams were accepted to compete, with a further 6 asked to be held in reserve. As it turns out, we had to ask all our reserves to take spots (some of whom could not) so we have ended up with 30 teams.
