Pool A

Friday night presents an opportunity for last season's Pool A winners Worcester to pick up their first win of the season. Currently sat at 0-3, they welcome Cardiff Met Archers and Team of the Week pick Takeshi Croke.

There's a battle of the unbeatens in the North West as St Helens Saints host Gloucester City Kings, and Myerscough will try to move to 4-0 against an unfortunate Leicester Warriors that have lost all three of their games to date by a combined 25 points.

Sheffield Sharks II travel over the Pennines to take on Player of the Week Daniel Davies and Manchester Magic, whilst BCU entertain winless Liverpool and Sheffield Arrows have their home opener against Tees Valley Mohawks.

Pool B

Last season's games between London Stars and Solent Kestrels were a top-four affair, but after a 2-0 start for the Kestrels and the Stars at 0-2, it's a different landscape in 2026/27.

Barnet's tie against London Lions II will give both teams an opportunity to press their top-four claims, and Barking's home tilt against CoLA should also provide plenty of entertainment.

Greenwich Titans will be hoping for a first win of the season as they head to Sussex Storm, and Richmond Knights host London Elite as they sweat on the availability of early standout Tyler Fairbairn.

Sunday's only game sees Oaklands Wolves attempting to keep their unbeaten start to the season on track as they head to Cobham Cobras.
